Missy, Great comment - Thanks. That is the great thing about the internet - We can visit the sites we choose to find the information that suits our needs. In my view, not only is there is absolutely NO problem with visiting both sites, I highly reccommend it!.

Lyn, Please let Wendy and Andrew know that we will indeed include them in our prayers. Times like this make it tough to find reasoning for why things happen the way they do. It should be a comfort to all of us (no matter how small) that everything happens for a purpose and will ultimately make...

That's awesome!! I hope you have the longevity of that turtle you are holding - I hear they outlast humans by a considerable margin!

I see a few issues with this. From ValveReplacement.org's point of view - this could not be managed on this forum as there are legal aspect with prescriptions and FDA training requirements. Machines and supplies are only supposed to be supplied by FDA certified vendors. Then there is the...

Yes - The chat feature is missed by many and definitely the most requested item to have added back in. It got back burnered with the February switch to valvereplacement.org and the assumption of the technical aspects of the site. I will start looking into it once again. Are many of you using...

The Jan Meister! How are you and the little man doing over yonder? It's always good to hear from my two favorite Liverpoolians..

Yes - There is room for valvereplacement.org heartvalvepatients.org and many many more. Luana - I don't know what the heck you are talking about, but you probably feel better for saying it, so it's a good day for all. Maybe you can start luana'ssiteadminadvice.org and we'll check that one out. I...

Rob, you are a tough old bird. If you can't do it - no one can. I have a feeling you will pull through just fine. You hear that Rob! Show them cutters whose Boss!!

1 Year is a wonderful milestone! I have had 11 of those now and each one keeps getting better and better. Keep on ageing and that's all you need to do!

Thanks Kathy. To me - It really comes down to this being an internet address that should never have the ability to cause anyone to fret. While it is a wonderful tool, it is not an important thing in life. The things that are really important to me are family, faith, friends and health. If we...

All. If there are "differences" between Ross and I, then they are perceived by Ross. Reducing the control of this forum down to just myself has absolutely nothing to do with Ross and his abilities and/or contributions to this site. If Ross decides to not return here - I will feel the loss of...

Laura.. Being Post-Op is much better than being Pre-Op. Now every day of recovery is a win. Keep on keeping on, and it is very good to know you are on the other side..

Doug, The finesse with which this site has been managed is all due to Ross's attention to it. yes - I believe that advertising is the key. The challeng is figuring out how to implement it without destroying the overall feel of the site. Thanks for your kind words.

Thank you everyone for the Birthday wishes. 44 Years - 11 of them bionic - and still ticking... You are all awesome and I appreciate your kind words.

Facts and Data Facts and Data I don't know about all that stuff y'all are saying. I do appreciate the conversation though as people looking for answers need to hear the reasonable and the "not so" reasonable and decide for themselves. I for one think it would be unwise to have a forum...

Years are good things to have behind us. Your years are our gain my friend. Hopefully we'll see you post the same message in another 8 years. Except the message would of course be touting some different number :rolleyes: Thank you for being here for all of Us Ross - You are a great man and we...

The official 2010 ValveRepalcement.org has been cancelled. We have instead decided to spend the time and resources on determining and implementing new direction for this forum. Official reunion activities are expected to continue in the future. Thank you to those who participated in the Poll.

Thank all of you so much for your well wishes and you are all very welcome. We all have many things to learn and improve, but I for one am so thankful that we have the opportunity to do so.

Today is another anniversary day for me. It has been 11 years since I became part mechanical. 11 years on coumadin without one single adverse effect. 11 years without any complications of any sort. 11 years of never once regretting the choice to have a mechanical aortic valve installed in...
