Mitral Valve Surgery Completed!!!

[jgibson]

Just wanted to make a quick post from the hospital here to let everybody know that my surgery went off without any problems, and that I am set to go home either Friday or Saturday. Once I get home I will post more detail about my experience, but did want to let everybody know what had happened.

Long story short, the repair was successful, and everything is looking great right now. Got the chest tube out today.

I'll post this weekend to give a more detailed breakdown on what happened.

Take care everyone!

Great news.

Best wishes for continued recovery in the hospital and for release with no complications. Your job now is to take it easy and don't strain anything. Healing from something like this takes awhile.
