About Me

I was evidently born with the genitic condition bicuspid valve. I have no stenosis and no aneurism. My BCV was found in 1981, and it was said I'd have to have the aorta valve replace "one day". "One day" was pronounced in October of 2020. I am scheduled for surgery on May 20, 2021 for aorta valve replacement.
