    Good evening Sr..I was of course flipping chanels & Your pictures & Book Caught “My Heart”. Especially the one of the child who’s scar went from half-way up his back to–As you said, all the way around the front…(Not sure just what it is that I want to say here),,, But I would of though that “They” would not need to make scars that noticable any more…You see, I too was born w/ Heart defects–(50 yrs ago) & my scar still reaches all the way across my chest & as a child my scares seam to streach completely around my upper body.. I am currently on my 2nd pace- maker (Defibulater) actually…At 2 1/2, I HAD THE FRIST SRUGERY OF IT’S KIND…I am the first to have had the heart removed from the chest & replaced.. They placed clamps on the large artuarty & spreaders in the small one…Then closed a hole in the wall of my heart the size of a Fifty-cent peace…I would have though that there, “TODAYS” teconalagy would not leave such a large noticable mark on a childs life…Although I am greatful for the life I have today,,,As a child, my parents were told that even with the surgery I would be luckly to live to see the age of 13….lol…Just goes to show you when GOD’S on your side there is nothing to fear….
    GOD LOVES
    YOU & ME….Don……E
