One year ago I had an Aortic Dissection. Like many others I thought I was having a heart attack and so did the emergency room physicians. Boy, were we wrong! It would have been so much better if I had known to Think Aorta Think Family. Since my dissection all three of my grown children and my brother have been tested for Aortic disease.
