このコンテンツについて
What happens after you survive a surgery that wasn't supposed to work? Bill Causey didn't just survive - he thrived. Law school, 34 years teaching at Georgetown, marriage, family, and a career that impacted thousands.
In Part 2, Bill shares what it was like navigating decades of cardiac care, the deeply personal letter from Dr. Taussig that said "hearing from you warmed my heart," and why he's devoted years to adult congenital heart advocacy. We also dive into the critical difference between pediatric and adult congenital care - and why 80% of cardiologists aren't trained to treat adult CHD patients.
This episode tackles access to care, the mental weight of living with something you can't cure, and what doctors told Bill for 73 years straight: "You're going to need a valve replacement." Spoiler: He still hasn't.
