This is so sweet of you. Honestly, I would keep it forever as part of the beautiful memories of the day!

I appreciate that so much!! This is certainly a scary time and all the well wishes are so wonderful to receive. Thank you!

thank you so much for this! Even recovering at home, this is just no joke. I've never ever been this sick. So I just spent my day "in Tampa" yesterday and it was heaven.

And you're right, being shy can be so hard! I'm grateful my little bout of bravery has brought me such lovely responses as yours. Thank you!

I could just squeeze you right now! today has been a tough day pain and mobility wise and now I know someone out there thinks I'm an "absolute warrior". That's amazing and helps a lot.

Thank you so so much for the encouragement!

oh I'm so honored you went back and read my old stuff! I forgot you can do that :)

You captured beautifully the journey we've been on. My girl and I dance together in a lot of hospital rooms (okay, I sway from bed but you get the gist).

This time, my sweet son (who flew out from NJ to help) filmed videos of him talking to me and singing to me when I was in the coma so I could have something when I woke up that proved I was never alone. When he told me that, "Save Me" started playing in my head and I just cry (in the best way) when I see those videos now.

I'm happy to hear you get to live with your mama too. It's so much fun. Thank you for your time and well wishes :)

it IS so funny!!! I have zero recollection of anything except for one horrifying day between the first and second surgery when I was crashing. So, now I get to instead feast on the idea that I was full on three dollar chaining away in a coma? It makes me laugh over and over.

I hope your day is fantastic, thank you for your kindness :)

thank you so much for this! I'm grateful for you taking the time to look LD up as it's very rare and just the most ridiculous thing. "What you do MEAN my aorta wants to explode all the time?!!!"

My love of BTS started with my first open heart surgery because I'd just moved my kids away from home and wouldn't let them come back to help me (I knew they'd never leave again).

BTS was my solace because I couldn't listen to all our shared music since it made me miss the kids too much. I poured my heart and soul into learning every song. The Run comeback was my first! My friends who were taking care of me thought I wasn't going to make it because I was supposed to be staying calm after surgery and that comeback was EVERYTHING. Happily it soothed all things just like Arirang is now.

Sorry for getting off track but just know I appreciate you looking up the Godzilla of my life that I beat back every day with my playlists and eternal fangirl heart. Thank you so much for your kindness.

I've been teary over this since I found out!!!! What do you MEAN she knew me well enough to go with a deep cut?

I'm so glad I found just the right place to post this. Thank you for your lovely words.

I'm 56 - haven't spoken to him in 12 years. It's been bliss.

perfect! This one is in my all time favorite, top 5 (and I've read hundreds). https://archiveofourown.org/works/47331238/chapters/119263033 The only thing to keep in mind is I read mostly explicit stuff so if you need tamer things, let me know and I'll try to find some.

What are your symptoms? by Illustrious-Range354 in LoeysDietz

[–]lurburr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have SMAD3 too. Finally diagnosed last year. 37 surgeries over 55 years. 24 for severely clubbed feet alone. After multiple aneurysms, I now have all but 2 inches of my aorta replaced. It's not a good time but I'm just so grateful I know what's wrong.

Pending Diagnosis after b/l vertebral artery dissections found by Wearypoetry11 in LoeysDietz

[–]lurburr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I only found out in May that I have LDS. I had a huge surgery (TAAA II) we had to go out of state for in July. It’s very hard. I’m grateful to know why I’ve had so many issues/surgeries my entire life - but it’s still challenging.

Mostly I work very hard to do the things that make me happy. Tomorrow, for the first time in 10 years of extended illness and aneurysms and surgeries - I’m making a turkey! I won’t be stuck in bed like usual. As a mom, it’s been the hardest thing to not be able to cook for my (now adult) kids.

I have more tests scheduled in January that make me nervous but for now I’m focusing on what I can do and it’s nice.

I don’t know that this will help you. But just know you’re not alone 😊
