I'm 78 and was recently diagnosed with a 4.2 ascending aortic aneurysm and a leaky valve. Why did I think nothing like this would ever happen to me? I don't think the medical people do enough to explain and prepare us for what may lie ahead, so this group of people who know the real deal, whether it's anxiety or surgery itself, is so important.
