So happy to hear, thanks for the update Matt, now anxiously waiting for Laura to be well enough to come on here and say hi.

Great news, Matt. Thanks for the update and give Lauramy best regards and a hug.

Just curious...was it due to the size that she eneded up with a bovine valve instead of a porcine?!

Anyhow, Congratulations!

Laura and Matt, congratulations on topping the mountain and having a pretty soft slide down the other side with Matt there to catch you. You both did great! We are all here to make the rest of this journey with you so call out when necessary.

Thanks so much for the update Matt. I'm so glad to hear how well Laura is doing and I hope you've also managed to get some rest and decent food

However again her humor was still shining through, in talking with the nurse we learned that instead of a pig valve as we had expected , she received a valve from a cow, no sooner than I had made the comment that this would mean I could no longer use my pig jokes Laura mouthed ?Moo Moo?.

the did the same switch on me too. I think my SO was most disappointed he couldn't call me Miss Piggy anymore (oh yeah... and I was devastated too ). Not sure why they did the switch, but the new one seems to be working just fine and dandy, which is what we all want.

Hope the rest of Laura's recovery goes just as smoothly and that she is back home with you soon.

Wishing you both the best,


A : )

Glad that Laura is doing fine. Hope she continues having a boring recovery -- that's the BEST kind.

Ross... Just wanted to let you know as we are in a teaching hospital Laura has had some mightly fine nurses, good thing it is not me in the bed with the heart problems as my heart skips a beat every time a new one walks in!

Yes based on size a bovine was necessary... not sure at what point in size they switch over but keep in mind they utilize piglets and calves for the valves so size is definately a deciding factor.
