Who is this group of people who gathered together for two days in July? |
Different age groups, different cities and states, different walks of life - what
did they have in common? |
Most had not met each other before, but they shared a common bond. In some way, aortic disease in the chest has touched them. |
Perhaps a climate of hope and an atmosphere of caring cannot be described - but it
can be experienced. |
Sessions covered a variety of topics. |
Physicians, medical students, and other health professionals gathered with
patients and family members. |
They soon found themselves sharing both laughter and tears. |
The search for increased understanding held out hope. |
The weather was ideal, the setting beautiful, but the reason for the gathering was
very important and very serious. |
