About Me

I have a bicuspid aortic valve and and ascending aortic aneurysm. We have been watchfully waiting since 2007 when both were discovered after a screening recommended by my Dad's heart surgeon following his own aortic valve replacement. Stenosis is now moderate and aneurysm has grown from 4.2 at diagnosis to a current 4.9. Scheduled for Ross Procedure on June 10th 2025
