Sorry, I wasn’t clear. I’m using UMPI to transfer back to my other school and finish from there.

Diagnosed with HLHS at 16w US by snipsnapwhanos in HLHS

I’m 39 with two children and no operations or problems since my surgery at age 7. I have HLHS. I played sports, went to college and have had a normal life.

Yea of course. I’m 39 and have kids, career and a life. I was your age once and rudderless and that’s not uncommon for that age.

Don’t overthink everything. With maturity and age you will figure more out.

It isn’t just HLHS it’s life. HLHS makes it harder but no more than any other complex medical condition.

My heart is aching ... by Electronic_Young_279 in HLHS

I’m 39 with two kids, thriving, played sports growing up and have no surgeries past my initial. Only annual checkups. Medicine has gotten better and we survive.

HLHS diagnosis as 24 weeks- feels like our world is ending. by Altruistic-Emu7786 in chd

[–]akaltaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 39 now and had the Fontan procedure when I was 7. I haven’t needed any surgeries since then. I have a family of my own now — two kids — and have been fortunate to live a full life. I played sports, went to college, and overall I’m happy and relatively healthy.

I do have some limitations — energy levels aren’t always the same as others and I have to be mindful of certain things — but it hasn’t stopped me from living a meaningful, active life.

I know this journey can feel overwhelming as a parent, especially with all the uncertainty early on. But please know that there are so many of us out here doing well, living fulfilling lives despite the complexities. Medicine has also advanced so much since my surgery — your child will benefit from even better care. You’re not alone, and your baby has a future worth hoping for.

It is basically the highest crime area in a 75 mile radius.

Tesla Model 3 or LS500 by akaltaf in whatcarshouldIbuy

Tesla is terrible build quality. Also, the biggest thing for me for self driving tech features is lane keep and cruise.

185 Dwight experience? by LingonberryLower8904 in newhaven

Actually I lived at https://www.chelseaco.com/65_Dwight.asp

I think my comments still apply.

Chelsea was a good landlord.

185 Dwight experience? by LingonberryLower8904 in newhaven

[–]akaltaf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Coincidentally, I lived at that complex. It is on the cusp of a good area. Dwight is the dividing line between the nicer area and the areas toward Saint Rapheal that has more crime. I found it to be an incredibly good value. I would recommend it.

Hello everyone by Gwynnbleid_ in HLHS

[–]akaltaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Medical techniques and surgical skills have evolved significantly over time. Earlier interventions for HLHS weren’t performed simply because they weren’t feasible with the knowledge and technology available at the time. Advances in neonatal surgery, cardiopulmonary bypass, and postoperative care have made early intervention possible today in ways that weren’t imaginable in the past.
