I added a couple of new links this morning. The first is for Cardiology Associates of Mobile. This is the group that my cardiologist, Dr. Mayer works with. I'm sure some of you will notice that he is pediatrics. As you know, I've been going to a cardiologist all my life. When my first one retired, he suggested Dr. Mayer. We've talked to Dr. Mayer before in the past asking if we needed to switch to just a regular cardiologist and he told us that as long as we didn't "mind the teddy bears on the walls", we could keep coming to him for as long as we liked.
The other link is to a description of valve replacement/repair surgery from the Texas Heart Institute. It's pretty amazing to me that they can let a machine take over your heart and lung functions for you, stop your heart, do something to it and then start your heart back up and hand the job of keeping you alive back over to it. Simply amazing.
