Robin Makes That HVS Mask Look Good!

By Adam Pick on October 1, 2020

As you may have seen in my previous post about COVID-19 masks, I had HeartValveSurgery.com face masks made for my family to help protect us during the COVID-19 pandemic. When ordering the masks, there was a significant price decrease if you purchased more masks. So, I bought 10 extra masks for the wonderful people in our community. Last Friday, I gave away the masks to 10 patients.

In response to the HVS mask giveaway, I received a wonderful email from Robin Hayes, a heart valves surgery patient, earlier today.

In her note to me, Robin wrote:

"Hi Adam, Thank you for the mask. I'm proud to be a heart valve surgery patient and survivor. I had a mechanical aortic valve replacement at Advent Health Waterman, Tavares, Florida. Dr. Gary Allen was my surgeon. June 2017. With some setbacks along the way, I am finally feeling better than ever! Thank you for your website and newsletter. It has been an encouragement to see that I am not alone on this journey!" -- Robin Hayes

I really loved getting this email from Robin. It was so great to see the mask being worn by a patient in out community. That made my day for sure!

Thanks Robin!!!!

Keep on tickin!
