Heart valve

Didn't Ford have a heart valve replaced by a "ball in cage" mechanism? That would seem worthy of mention in the article.Edison (talk) 00:06, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think so... nothing on Lexis Nexis and nothing on Google News Archive (as far as I can tell): [1]. I will try to remember to check the Courier-Journal archives tomorrow, I can run a search of them back to 1988, but not from home. --Rividian (talk) 00:56, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
