Update: my open heart surgery was a complete success

Thank you to everyone for your support and encouragement, the last few days have felt like absolute hell but today I was finally well enough for my girlfriend to bring me my AVP. I’ve mostly just been watching the Simpsons episodes I’ve downloaded from Disney+ since I’ve been so tired. The doctors say I’m recovering well and should be able to go home by Friday. I’ve got a long recovery ahead but I’m getting better every day, and should hopefully be good enough to get back to work by the end of the month.
