At Edwards Lifesciences, that&#8217;s right. Why am I here is a big question, and it is for the annual <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edwards.com\/aboutus\/patientvoice\">2018 Patient Day<\/a> in Irvine, California. You can see here, here&#8217;s some of the employees as they&#8217;re getting ready to welcome the patients that are going to be coming through those doors in just a few minutes.<\/p>\n<p>The one thing that you also might want to see is what&#8217;s happening in the brand new atrium here at Edwards Lifesciences. It&#8217;s not just those people who work at Edwards; it&#8217;s the people who make the valves. Does it take a few people to make the valves?<\/p>\n<p>Does it take five? You know, it takes over 1,000 stitches, and it takes a lot of people. \u00a0I&#8217;m going to show you who they are. \u00a0[applause, cheering]<\/p>\n<p>These people are here. They&#8217;re here for you.
