Brian,
It sounds like you're making a good recovery under difficult circumstances. It's no wonder you've been depressed and anxious, with all that going on, and it seems to be a common post-op experience among heart patients. "Tele-Therapy" has helped me deal with my cardiac situation, and time is another healer.
You and your brothers having cardiac evaluations was a wise move that should help provide you with a health(ier) future.

Hello- my name is Brian, I am 44 years old and live in Fort Myers, Florida. On March 6th, 2020 I lost my younger brother to a heart attack. It was devastating and happened right before the Covid lockdown which made the grieving period for me and my family very surreal. Me and my other two brothers scheduled full testing with cardiologists soon after my brother's death. My two brothers were ok after testing but I found out that I needed a quadruple bypass and had that surgery on June 3rd 2020. With COVID in full effect I was unable to have visitors and FaceTimed my family and friends to help me through the first few days of recovery. I am happy to announce that I am doing well now a little over 3 months since my surgery. However, I have been struggling with depression and anxiety since my surgery and I am seeing a therapist to help me through this. I wanted to share my story. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
