Congrats on running the gauntlet ! It is strangely nostalgic to see the same gowns, same patient protocol and same look from my surgery.... Hope you find comfort in the days ahead !

You look cheerful and in good spirits after your third surgery, you´re a true heart valve warrior, indeed. 👍

A beautiful day in Cleveland
You are in a great place! I had my surgery there 3 1/2 years ago. ❤️
My surgery is tomorrow. During my surgery my surgeon will decide if I qualify for the Ross. Still a chance I make it to Ross procedure. I'm shocked and thankful
What a beautiful day! Enjoy and try to relax. Tomorrow you get to sleep while your team does what they do best.

Sending my best thoughts and prayers your way today🙏❤️ We can't wait to hear from you very soon!
