About Me

I was ready to retire and decided to get a full checkup and discovered that I had a Aneurysm and I was born with a heart murmur, the Aneurysm was getting worse and we decided to get Open Heart surgery to fix the Aneurysm and replace the Aortic Valve with a pig valve. Coming up on 14 years and still going strong. Mitral valve clip installed also a Watchman was installed an got me off of Blood Thinners (as I tell people I have a Aortic ands mitral Clip and a Watchman watching the valves) then I have to explain what it is.
