@s.sampson1: Nine years ago today, I almost lost everything. Three months after having my baby Eli, an incidental finding led to the discovery of a 5 cm ascending aortic aneurysm. During surgery, my surgeon found a chronic ascending aortic dissection. This picture? It was taken the very next day. Twenty-four hours after open-heart surgery, I was pumping breast milk for my baby. Today, I know I have classic-like Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, but back then I had no idea why this happened. Today isn’t a sad day. It’s Aorta Day. We celebrate life, family, incredible medicine, and every person who helped me get here. Because every heartbeat since July 31, 2017 has been a gift. ❤️ Happy Aorta Day.

Having open heart surgery in 2 weeks and will be 3 and a half months postpartum, and pumping. Seeing other women do it makes me feel so much more confident that I can do this!

My 5.5 cm aneurysm was on my ascending aorta and was also caught by accident. During my 8 1/2 hr surgery in addition to "sleeving" the aneurysm I had an annuoplasty and a double bypass with my mammary artery.

I tried breastfeeding after having my 2nd but they put me on a water pill to help with my swelling and it dried my milk up. I had open heart about a month and a half after my second was born.
