Change of Heart

Having heart transplant surgery was a life-altering experience. After the procedure, I was met with a whole new reality. Not only did I have someone else’s heart, but I also had to make significant lifestyle changes to guarantee my health.

My diet, exercise routine, and stress levels were all under a microscope. I had to make sure I was taking my medications in the correct dosages and on time.

I was trying to make sense of the new normal I was facing in my life. I could no longer do some of the activities I used to enjoy before the surgery. Instead, I had to focus on taking care of my new heart.

I was no longer the same person I was before the surgery, and my life has not been the same since.
