Eight years ago before Simon changed over to this site, I was known as Blueblades. I mentioned back then 7/21/03 that I was diagnosed as having a narrow aortic valve. Well, the time has come to update all my friends back then and now. I will be having open heart surgery this thursday 6/21/12. I am getting a new valve, it will be a tissue Bovine valve ( cow ). It supposed to last from 10 to 15 years. I'm 67 now.

I was just wondering what had happened to you (blueblades) the other day. Thanks for the update.

Mall Cop, sorry to hear you are having health problems. Glad to see you are getting a Bovine valve. That means you will not have to be on blood thinning medication such as coumadin. My brother in law has had a mental valve for over 25 years and has not had any problems. Hope everything goes well with you. Isn't great to have surgeries that can help us with our problems. I had a brain aneurysm in 1997.It was repaired by going through my femoral artey and into my brain where they repaired it with platinum coils. I have not had any problems since them. I will be thinking of you on Thrusday. Keep us informed on your progress.

Nice to hear from you Blueblades. I really enjoyed your older posts under your former moniker.
I wish you a successful surgery and recovery.
