Dear Adam,

I can’t thank you enough for putting the questions and answers of Dr. Marc Gillinov on e-mail for us to be able to read all the information. I just read the 27 pages with great interest – you are doing a valuable service to all of us who have had valve replacement surgery – thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Little Ethan is getting more adorable – I love when you post his photo. He has to be the apple of your eye. Stay well and happy. All the best,

Sincerely,

Grace

Hi Adam,
I am ever grateful for all your work on this website, and your book.
This latest picture of you and Ethan is the best ever. He is absolutely, incredibly adorable. And to have a dad like you… Wow!
I look forward to reading Dr. Gillinov’s transcript very soon.
Oh, here’s something of interest: the Cleveland Clinic is writing a story about my recovery, and my use of guided meditation and diet as an aid to faster healing following my mitral valve repair done by Dr. Gillinov. The article will be published in the clinic’s Be Well magazine, and it comes out this April.
Best,
Anita

Thank you Adam! My questions were answered. Also, reading all the other questions and answers has helped to further my knowledge regarding heart valve conditions and surgical procedures.
