Ooof.  Sorry about your circumstances there man.  Hopefully things get sorted soon.

Wow, that's an eclectic mix of sub-optimal things right there!  Hopefully you're due for some better news.  Will they be able to do the heart valve trans-catheter?  From what I've heard that makes that job a LOT simpler and easier for you.  Open heart surgery sucks.

Yes, they will. I did lose my two rightside Wisdom teeth though. That sucks, veet painful last night. Now a few weeks of antibiotics before the surgery.

Sorry to hear about the Depends pullup. The other stuff you can adapt to and bounce back from. But Depends? Ooof.

Yeah, done that too.  No fun (except for laughing at my own chipmunk-face when the swelling kicked in 🤣).  There's a weird nexus between teeth problems and heart valve problems.  Google "infective endocarditis" but you probably already know.

At least you'll dodge the open-heart-surgery bullet.  That's something.

Hope you feel better soon! Those are big surgeries, makes sense that recovery might take some time. Hope you feel a little better each day!

@Cute_Kitten @AbabeBill Thanks

 Surgery was on the 30th. I am sitting in a chair 

 

Hope you’re in a good diaper 🙂 But unless you brought your own, probably not. 🤷‍♂️
