I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE SURGERY,BUT I AM RESPONDING ABOUT YOU BEING A MOTHER HOW TENSE IT IS.... SEE MY SON WAS DIAGNOSED WITH HAVING VSD.. THAT IS TWO WHOLES IN HIS HEART AND A BAD VALVE WAY. AT THE AGE 16 HE HAD A TRIPLE BY-PASS SURGERY. SCARED ...WAS I !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  THAT IS SOMETHING OLDER PEOPLE GO THROUGH. TO SEE MY SON LAYING UP IN THE HOSPITAL HEPLESS BROKE ME ALL THE WAY DOWN. THIS YEAR, IN APRIL HE HAD TO GO BACK AND HAVE A VALVE REPAIR. WHEN THAY WENT INTO, THEY REALIZE HE NEEDED ANOTHER BY-PASS SURGERY. MY HEART POUNDED EVEN HARDER, ....WHY? MY FATHER DIED OF HEART FAILURE. AND TO SEE THIS TWICE IT SCARED ME. HE WENT TO CHILDRENS MEDICAL CENTER IN WASHINGTON, DC. THE BEST. I THANK GOD MY SON IS STILL LIVING. HE CAN'T PLAY SPORTS OR ANYTHING CONTACT. AND HE CAN'T GET SO EXCITED. HE IS  ON CERTAIN MEDICINES BUT HE  IS HANGING IN THERE. THE POINT I AM TRYING TO MAKE TO YOU IS THAT IN LIFE YOU TAKE RISK AND THEN YOU HAVE TO HAVE FAITH TO OVERCOME. DO WHAT'S BEST FOR YOUR SON.
