Teresa, Happy Birthday! Mine was a few days ago.
I also watched Cuauhetemoc's video. Truly a great birthday gift! I couldn't help but tear up a bit. I can relate to his story as well.

Teresa, I also live in Illinois, but in McHenry. I grew i up in Schaumburg. I go to Northwestern downtown to Dr Rigolin for my 6 month echos and apts. I have not spoken to your surgeon, but did have a video visit with Dr. Malaisrie about 2 year ago now. I have not been scheduled for surgery yet, as it is primarily my tricuspid valve and they tell me I am still in wait and watch mode. It is moderate to severe. Please keep me posted on your journey and if there is anything I can help with, I am here for you as far as listening and/or helping you find out any information you may need or want. Best wishes, and please do not ever hesitate to reach out to anyone on this site, including Adam Pick. Ther is such knowledge and lots of love here
