Hi Corey, Nice to meet you and best of luck for your upcoming surgery. My husband had a mitral valve repair that went well 10 years ago, but on his most recent echocardiogram, they noticed a mild dilation of his aorta. We are still waiting to hear what our next steps should be. We live in California, but I was thinking of getting a second opinion from the Cleveland Clinic. Please send my warm regards to your wife too, as it is hard for her too, I know too well. Good luck and I will be thinking of you.

Corey Potter Thank you, Rebecca. I have been going to Cleveland Clinic for almost five years and the medical staff has been very good to work with. I live six hours away and they have always done a very good job with scheduling of appointments. I always stay next door at The Intercontinental Hotel, which is very convenient. My oldest daughter is a nurse practitioner and she is going to be there with my wife and I think that will be a huge help for her. Thanks again for the warm wishes and best wishes to you and your husband.

Hello Corey, I’ve just read your story and can see that your surgery is happening in the next few weeks. Good luck with it. I’m 12 days post surgery now and happy to answer any questions you may have. You’ve certainly made the right decision and before you know it, it’ll be done and you’ll be recovering. All the best.

Corey Potter Hello Ben! Thank you for reaching out. Glad to hear your past the most important part (surgery) and now in recovery. I hope your recovery goes smoothly. I am at the point of information overload. I am not exactly sure what my surgery will entail. My hope is for repair of my aortic valve but sounds like that may be wishful thinking. I won't know anymore until the pre-surgery testing on July 9th and 10th. Whatever happens, I hope it goes as smoothly as many of the stories I've read on this site. Again, I hope your recovery goes well.
