Heart

All of this prepared me for December. I brought my bags down and packed and was headed to Washington that week. For a few months, we were doing some tests on my heart. I have been aware of heart disease for 15 years. My valve leaked and at some point you have to get it fixed. Things changed over the course of a few months. The leak got worse and my aorta began to get very large and the pressure in the heart became very high.
