I completed a follow-up echo today one year after my Ross procedure at Mt Sinai in New York. My valves are looking great!
Enjoyed seeing some of my New York team heroes again -Dr. El-Hamamsy, Dr. Williams, Roberto and Leemor รขยยครฏยธย

Great pic, Grace!
I agree with Nancy you are looking healthy and ready for anything dressed in your new swag.
Looking good!!
Looking great, Grace. Hearing about the sternal non union must have been disappointing. Have you had a chance to speak with the surgeonรขโฌโขs office yet? Iรขโฌโขm not familiar with it.
Congrats! You wear it well, Grace! โค๏ธ

Yeah! Glad you are feeling good and thatรขโฌโขs excellent that you have been able to have more intense workouts รขโฌโ I know how good that must feel! I am sorry to hear about your sternum รขโฌโ I hope the plates will hold things together? I heard some clicking a couple... Read more.

Thanks for all your kind words and well wishes รฐลธโโรฐลธโโ
