About Me

I work in Radiology, 2 years ago our department got a new Ultra Sound machine, the US tech asked me: Alfonso let me check your heart with the new machine, I remember exactly the words that came out of my mouth lol " yes.. so you can find something and tell me I need to see a Dr." Well the rest is history. She found 2 leaky valves one is worse (aortic valve) than the other one so After almost 2 years of check ups and 3D Echocardiograms I am schedule for Aortic Valve Replacement on May 14th 2015. I am really nervous but I trust the Lord and everyone in the hospital that ill be ok.
