About Me

15 years ago I had a homograph aortic valve replacement. It is now time for replacement as it is leaking. I have decided on a tissue valve instead of the mechanical version that my cardiologist wanted me to have. I have a surgery date of April 7th, 2010. We leave for Edmonton on Sunday so I will talk to you all in a couple of weeks.
