I visited her yest. and she still seems like herself just a little more tired and drained from tests being done at the hospital. she just wants to come home really bad, but obv cant for prob at least a week. i am really scared and upset. please pray for her. does anyone know anyone who has had open heart surgery before?? i'm hoping that nothing bad will go wrong during or after. im not sure about the success rates or god forbid if a number of patients pass away shortly after. i just hope they fix this shit and she stays alive and well for years. i might not be able to reply to this post for a while bc i have been busy, so thanks in advance for your support


Don't worry girl, she will be fine! This is a very common procedure that has a very high success rate, especially on people in good shape.

My grandpa had heart surgery 15 years ago and hes still goin' strong.

..and my dad had heart surgery a little over 2 years ago and hes doin' just fine too.

Your grandma will be fine, although she will have to take some time to recover, don't worry girl..everything will go smoothly.

Ill send ya some positive thoughts.

Try not too worry too much, although I know it's hard..I know how much you love your grandma because I lived with my grandpa almost my whole life too and she means the world to me.
