- I must admit this time round having the heart surgery was hard as all my kids were old enough to understand the youngest being 10. So i decided to give up work for a bit afterwards and spend some time with them, bad mistake. Having heart surgery gives u a different outlook on life I think especially if you have it in adulthood as i couldnt remember the oain when I had it as a child. I have been trying to get back to work, but that has proved easier said than done because they look at the sick leave but dont look into the reasons, I get quite frustrted when my valves were leaking anyone would give me a job now they have been replaced and repaired for now nobody seems to want to take the chance, typical lol. well have a good shift at work and dont work too hard
