Hi all just wanted to update you all. Some of you may remember giving me some advice last summer when my 15 year old son had his aortic valve and some of his aorta replaced. Well he has recovered amazingly. He is like a new person. So much so that he will be running a 10k in 2 weeks to say thankyou to the hospital. He will be 8 month post op. He his an inspiration to me and a true warrior.

Hello

I also 'borrowed' an aortic valve some time ago, and your post gives me such joy! I am so glad and may he continue to inspire you for many many more years to come.
