Divya:
So those were exactly the thoughts, and the second was anxiety. Obviously, you know, how does it impact my life? How does it impact the people who are impacted by my presence? Yeah, those would be the two reactions.
Yes, of course, they had told me this that if you have a valve replaced, you might need to get it replaced every seven years, and it needs to be monitored very closely because it’s an outside object which they put into your system. But if they repair your valve, then it’s basically your body healing itself. And because I had a valve repaired, vis-à-vis valve replacement, I think I got back to normal life much more quickly.
