Larry King heart foundation

[hensylee]

Anyone see Larry King last night? He had Kirk Douglas, Sr (stroke), Kate Jackson (valve replacement) and Stallone/wife (baby heart surgery) as guests, plus doctors as guests. It was really interesting. The theme was heart health. Very informative show. My cousin's granddaughter a couple weeks ago had a hole in her heart repaired with the new way (not invasive) and she went home the same night and is doing fine. This operation has been around for about 3 yrs, but insurance cos don't want to pay for it because it's new (as in my cousin's case-they raised a ruckus all the way to Washington and got it done). A very good Larry King program. If you see it come around again, you might want to watch it. God bless

Missed it Hensylee.
Kate Jackson, valve replacement. Wow. Maybe we can get her to join our discussions.

Did they mention the valve type? She had breast cancer too. You know....she is the 3rd or 4th individual I have heard of with that cancer type and valve replacement. Wonder if there is any predisposition there?

Don't recall that valve type was mentioned nor that she had cancer, but I tuned in a bit late. Predisposition? Maybe. Never know. Would be nice to have her input here. Hollywood community is working toward heart health so maybe they will hear about VR.
