Today There Are Many Winners

Visual Vamp Update - Today I read the most magnificent news that Alberto and Valorie are now back on U.S. soil and in their beloved New Orleans. 

This is a brief update today from Valorie's blog -

"Alberto Paz is out of surgery in NEW ORLEANS! His doctor, Dr. Bhansali is brilliant! He did the stent in record time, and saved Alberto from having the dangerous open heart surgery the Canadian doctors were holding us hostage for. Thank you everyone for your donations and prayers to get us home! We hope to leave the hospital tomorrow or Wednesday! More later...xo xo"
