You gave me a second chance. There's more new babies, lots of get wells, great weddings to plan… I'm thinking outside the box! I'm thinking outside my world! You gave me my life back… I get to design, design and design again. My ideas are clearer now filled with bold colors and total brightness because you gave me my tomorrows.

I may be unique with an annuloplasty band inside my little heart, but, it beats for you Dr. Tomy and the Cleveland Clinic forever! You are the healers of the heart and the soul… a healing center not a hospital… and last, but not least, happy birthday to my little mommy. I'm here, right here to make her favorite red roses.

Happy 80th mommy. We thank you, Dr. Tomy from both our hearts!
