About Me (In My Own Words)
This is my second aortic valve replacement. The first done in 2009 has self destructed. The first was a pig valve and I was hoping I might be able to snuffle out some Vancouver Island truffles. Unfortunately not. This valve will be a cow valve and I dearly hope I don’t moo or produce milk! A friend has ordered a pint of whipping cream. Not funny. Yes it is.
I am very happy to be included in this group. It wasn’t established last time and I felt quite isolated here on Vancouver Island.
