Hi Dawn! So grateful to find you here and look forward to reading more. I'm a SCAD heart attack survivor 6 years now. I live with an untreatable vascular condition (FMD) and underwent a 4-hour heart surgery at Mayo Clinic to close a congenital heart defect only discovered when I was 43 and had my heart attack! I am incredibly lucky, and thankful to feel good and live my life. I am glad to read you are in a good place too. and TWO heart transplants? You are a queen! Cheers to you.

Congratulations on your six-year survival. Do you have an ICD to keep you safe from any future events? I had one for a couple of years until the first transplant.

Congratulations on reaching over 500 subscribers. Another Substacker, Susan Wadds, is writing her second novel about someone who received a transplant, with an unusual side effect.
