The mechanical valve will not wear out. But as your princess grows, her heart grows too, but the valve does not. Therefore she will probably need a replacement after a couple of years.
Once she has stopped growing, the mechanical valve will last her whole life and need not be replaced anymore.
Yes, lifelong medication :-( , but fortunately that normally goes without much problems.
You little girl will recover very quickly, especially with all the love and care she gets.
