By Adam Pick on July 9, 2010

For those of you following the heart valve replacement recovery of Barbara Walters... I just learned that Barbara Walters will appear on "The View" this Monday, July 12, eight weeks after surgery.

Barbara Walters, heart valve patient and television host

According to reports, the 80-year old recipient of an aortic valve replacement, will appear - via video - briefly during the show founded by Mrs. Walters. As you may recall, Barbara had heart valve surgery due to severe aortic stenosis at the beginning of May, 2010.

ABC released the following statement, "In what will be her first nationally televised appearance since undergoing heart valve replacement surgery in May, "The View" creator, executive producer and co-host Barbara Walters will appear on the show live, via Skype, on Monday, July 12. -- ABC News"

Keep on tickin' Barbara!
