Recorded January 30, 2011
A quick correction: I got the figure of 2 months from my GP, but the records of the hospital that performed it show it was done at 7 months.
I had to resist naming it "In which I open my heart to you." I can't get that terrible Barbara Waters pun out of my head.
Note: The open-heart surgery procedure has already occurred! I seem to be recovering quickly and I will post these vlogs at a later date. This is nothing more than a record of my own experiences with heart problems and surgery. For now I am deliberately avoiding naming people or places because I don't want to deal with privacy concerns.
Anyway this was intended to introduce my early experiences with Tetralogy of Fallot, but it got cut short when I spent so long trying to describe what the condition is and then didn't describe the rest well. So for more personal experiences, head to Vlog 2.
