Living Fully with a Mechanical Valve: Insights from Joel Oliver

Open Heart Surgery with Boots

Dec 17 2024 • 24 mins

Hey Heart Buddies! For the remainder of the year, I am bringing back the most downloaded episodes of the year.

First up is Joel Oliver! His "easy peasy" heart surgery story might surprise you. Joel takes us step by step through his mitral valve replacement journey, revealing moments of doubt, resilience, and unexpected challenges along the way. While Joel's surgery marked a significant event in his life, the real intrigue lies in his post-surgery perspectives. Did this intense experience radically change his outlook on life, or did it simply become another chapter in his adventurous narrative? Whether you're a heart patient, a caregiver, or just curious about human resilience, Joel's insights promise to resonate deeply.
