I certainly recognize the surgeon's signature, down the center of the chest. Even after 23 years, I still see it if I stand before a mirror.

Excellent!  I had a repair with a reinforcing ring, rather than a

While searching for something today, I came across a sample of the
mechanical heart valves that I had implanted in 1993.  Young nurses with
sharp ears could hear them ticking from across the room.  When I had a
stress test earlier this year, one of the nurses finally asked, "What am I
hearing?"  This is 1990s technology, but, in the spirit of Halloween, I
thought someone might be interested.
