Hi! I'm in the same position as you, well almost. I'm also a female born with aortic stenosis, but my condition hasn't worsened since the last surgery, about 12 years ago.

My question is, how did you afford to pay for the surgery? I'm from America so medical bills are no joke

I was lucky that I didn't have to pay for my previous 2 surgwries, since I was a low-income child and there are a bunch of charities for that sort of thing. But now that I'm almost 18, I'm seriously worried about being able to afford future doctor visits and surgeries.
