Hi Bev
You\'ve been one of my favorite heart valve people to follow. I remember after your surgery with your complications but you always bounced back and improved. Now, at 6 months you are doing so well. What a wonderful trip you must have had, something you wouldn\'t have been able to do before surgery? I hope you continue to enjoy life and drop a note every now and then to tell us what you\'re up to. I just finished rehab and am at the 5 month mark and doing well.

Happy Monday to Bev, and thnx for this current up-date. Someone should arrange for you to be the Poster Girl (Lady?, Senior?) for Aortic Stenosis surgery. Your journal would inspire anyone with a valve problem who dreads the operation to repair it. You are amazing.
Love to you from Rita.........& Chuck, too.

Just have to send this one on Independence Day, because you have truly got your independence back. We are proud of you.
Love and hugs,always.

happy 4th To You, Beverly
How wonderful to get your update. Still remember reading all the problems you had early on and how you overcame them. Sounds like life is good and it surely is. It\'s been 3+ months for me and am in rehab and getting a lot out of it. Wish I could meet someone who makes the bovine valves and then see how they\'re made. You\'re an oinker and I\'m a mooer, guess we both should live on a farm somewhere.Stay healthy and drop a note every now and then and tell us of your latest escapades.

Hi again. It\'s wonderful to get your periodic updates and to learn of your constant improvement and strength! We\'ve had about 10 days of triple digit weather but this morning it was nice and cool (under 80 degrees) so I got in a nice walk about 9. Hugs to you and hope your 4th is a blast. Fondly, Vern

Dear Bev,
How nice to hear such an interesting and upbeat report from you. I can imagine how you must have enjoyed visiting the company responsible for your heart valve.
Have a great 4th of July.

Beverly, I am so happy you are doing well. I know what you are saying about it being a month since you have been in the journals -- a sure sign you are doing better and getting busy and back to normal. The cardio-rehab is excellent and Richard has done well in it and ended up signing on there for just one more month to monitor his blood pressure a little.
Keep those aerobic classes up and it is good to hear you are doing so well.

I\'m having my challenges but nothing comparible so I appreciate your positive mind set. Keep up the good work!!

Yeah Bev, what a fast healer with that knee -heart valve must be doing the same! Glad to hear you are doing well - obviously cardio rehab will help too, I know Richard has gotten so much stronger and looking more like his old self (minus a few pounds that didn\'t hurt to see gone, I must say).

Hola from the land of Georgia peaches. The weather is absolutely heavenly and the kids and farm are wunderbar. So glad to get the news on what your knee accident was (hate to tellyou but the RH Symphony was the best yet!! I did something like that, leaning on the stone (crooked) fireplace and heard a snap and stiff and sore and then the famous bulge on the back of the knee. A long story short, Dr. S. said No arthoscopy, they\'ll runin it b ut suggested elastic support and a couple of other tricks and in a couple of months it was as good as new but I am very careful with it. Look forward to seeing you and Judy on the 18th, will check in when I get there. Love ya, Irene

Hi Dear One,
Thanks for the good news. You are a resiliant and courageous friend. I am sorry I haven\'t checked on you for a week - I myself have been inundated with the last hurrah of my work life - 3 seminars this week and one more next week. Lotsa planning, packing, unpacking, driving, talking, laughing, and making the most of my final stages of this wonderful career! I know you understand!
