I was not surprised

Today the team of amazing doctors that helped save my life gave me news that I was expecting but hoping it would not be the case.

I am not a candidate for a heart transplant

@Mamapolo2016 yes we're not going to give up just yet. But thankfully this surgery was bought me a lot more time.

Heart ❤ transplant is high risk. I would hope you would not have to go through that. Hopeing for long life on what has been done.

Did they say why?

@VersesAndBruises the heart defect and my mental health

But you don't need one right?

Cigarguys · 41-45, C

@Gibbon some day yes. The defect will get worse again but not for a while. I've been giving the gift of extra time

After this operation you don't need a new heart do you???

@Musicman right now I'm going to enjoy the extra time I got and soon enough we will try and see what other options I have down the road.

Musicman · 61-69, M

@Cigarguys You may need a better specialist at another hospital.

Cigarguys · 41-45, C

@Musicman I'm going to get a second or third opinion for sure. But right now I'm just focusing on healing
