Questions, anyone?

I will be attending an "Ambassadors Summit"from Thoratec in Oakbrook IL on tuesday June 7th.

They will have a Q&A session and I was wondering if anyone had any questions about our "life saving Lvad"!to drop me a post and I will be sure to ask someone there.

Also let me know if any of you will you be attending so I can look you up.

Hi Mike

It was a very interesting Q&A about the heart mate 2. There were 8 of us lvad guys there.

2 from Loyola 3 from U of C 2 from Nothwestern and I'm not sure but I think 1 from Christ hospital.

There was a lot of info about the future and sounds like the beginning of 2013 the new system controller will be ready and it's the size of a cell phone!!

The people from Thorotec had an agenda, and I told them " I know you want things to run smooth but you get 8 lvad patients in the same room And watch out" I really enjoyed it.
