Wow Angelia! You have a lot on your plate to say the least! You have faced so much already and still have more to deal with. You sound like you have a positive attitude and that will help you get through. I'm so sorry you have had such a difficult time lately. I'll keep you in my prayers that you heal from your surgery, and get through all the other things. If you do end up having a septal myectomy, you will want to be in the best shape emotionally and physically. So it sounds like it worked out the way it should not coming to Mayo sooner. They say everything happens for a reason. Take your time and heal yourself.
To answer your questions: Yes, my new surgery is July 8. When the pandemic shut down the World, we postponed it to July thinking Covid 19 would be in the rearview mirror by then. Who knew it'd still be hanging out there? I will be flying from Sacramento to MSP/St Paul with my significant other/designated bell boy. I asked this group of brave warriors about flying after a septal myectomy and the consensus was, yes, you can definitely fly. The folks on this sight that have gone through this have shared their experiences, and I can tell you, while each story differs, because we are all unique, their responses have helped me to not feel alone. I hope it helps you too. Before the Pandemic I lost my mom. The day before Easter I had to put my dad on Hospice, and four days later I lost my job at the hospital I've work at for 19 years. So what you said about those who pray are praying the next half of 2020 is better is so true...we all want things to get better. You take care of yourself. Best wishes facing your next challenge.

So very sorry to hear of the loss of your Mother. How devastating for you and now your Father in hospice? Im sorry, I can't imagine the pain you are in. I will pray for you, also. I hope you have a good support system surrounding you. I truly am at a loss for words. I pray for blessings and peace as you go forward and for fast healing after your surgery. Angelia
