Harriet made it to the other side

honeybunny · Jan 6, 2016

I just got an email update from Harriet herself. I heard from her son yesterday and asked if I could post the news that she made it through surgery and would be sleeping for another six hours. She replied to my email as follows:
Michelle yes you may it's me actually Harriet .. not much of a night sucked I'm am a little upset with my doctor as he repaired the mitral instead of replacing it find that most upsetting
.he replaced the aortic valve and the root
I will ttysoon. . Xx

I think it's a very good sign that she is about to send off an email this soon. I certainly wasn't in any condition to do that for several days post op. I told her she had a lot of valvers thinking of her yesterday.

Please pass my best on to Harriet. I'm sure her cardiac surgeon would have had good reason to do what he did once he got inside and saw. Lots of mixed emotions post surgery xx

Fantastic news. Thank you honeybunny for letting us know her status. Congratulations Harriet for making it to the other side. At some point, I would be interested to hear of the surgeon's rationale.
