Marc's Story:
In mid-September, Marc had an ablation procedure for cardiac arrhythmia. This relatively simple and commonplace procedure was undertaken by a highly regarded and competent cardiac surgeon. All seemed OK at the time and Marc went home to recover.

Three weeks later, on October 12, Marc went into septic shock with bacteria leaking from his oesophagus into his heart. He was rushed to Yale hospital where he had two open chest surgeries. The first fixed the hole in his heart, the second fixed the hole in his oesophagus. Sometime during those surgeries, he had a heart attack and a stroke.
The doctors that worked on him were among the best in the world, but they only gave Marc a 13% chance of making it through the first week.

Marc may be slowly on the mend, but he needs our support NOW!
