About Me

I have lived my entire life with valve (aortic) that has two leafs. Now it is leaking and in 2015 doctors found an aneurism . I went one year and in May of this year was told I need surgery. Date of surgery is to be determined after June 9th meeting with surgeon. I go to Springfield on June 2nd for Cath procedure.
