Just a quick update. Pre-op was a success so its a go for the ninth of May. For those of you interested here is a bit more about myself. I am a 40 yo male from New York. I have a wife and two great kids. A daughter who is 8yo and a son who is 3 months. Was diagnosed with Marfans after the first surgery ( Valve sparing root replacement) . Was told that this is the reason for my medical problems. Will be having procedure done at Columbia Presbyterian in Manhattan By Doctor Allen Stewart who did my first procedure.I cant say enough for his compassion and understanding during my time of need. He is in the group of Drs. with Dr. Oz who also did my first procedure and recommended Dr Stewart. Great bunch of people. Thanks again for the great support from this site. Really does make you feel good that you are not alone. Talk soon.
