Papua new Guinea→India·November 2026

“<p>Before the operation, the doctors explained all the possible risks to me. They told me that bypass surgery was a major operation and that my diabetes and heart condition needed extra care. They also explained that my heartbeat could become irregular after surgery. First, they spent three days getting my condition and sugar levels under control. After the operation, I did have an irregular heartbeat, but the doctors had already told me this could happen and took care of it.</p>”
