Our Prayers Are With Kelly

By Adam Pick on February 10, 2012

Hi everybody,

I just learned that Kelly Nugent, who had aortic and mitral valve surgery on February 3rd, experienced complications and remains in critical condition. I do not know all the details yet. However, I do know that Kelly has been through A LOT and needs our support.

Kelly Nugent, heart valve patient

While there is much debate, and even studies, about the power of prayer... I'm a believer. That said, I'm sending Kelly healthy, heart-pumping thoughts right now. I know that Linda, Mitch, Anne, Deb, Jane and Sheila - her Heart Valve Journals buddies - are probably doing the same. If you could offer Kelly a prayer, I imagine Kelly and her family would greatly appreciate it.

Keep on tickin' Kelly!
Adam
