I will be 70 in April and last year went into surgery about 3 weeks prior to my 69th birthday. Following two echocardiograms, it was learned that there was a possible narrowing of the aorta. I took a tread mill test and it was positive, angiogram indicated moderate aortic stenosis and two blocked arteries.
Photography, gardening, travel (cruises). I also prepare a newsletter for the Veterans' Association 4 times per year.
