Amy Grant shares photo of her unanticipated open heart surgery scar

Gospel-singer and songwriter Amy Grant termed her open heart surgery- miraculous as she shared the photos of the scar with an Instagram post, thanking her friends, family, & fans. 

The 59-year-old star shared her story of battling with an unexpected open-heart surgery on June 3 where correction of a partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR), a congenital heart condition took place. 

She started her post by quoting the ongoing disturbance due to novel coronavirus and protests sparked by the death of George Floyd and said, “I know there is so much going on in the world right now. This is a crazy, broken, yet beautiful time. And in the midst of all of that – of all of our awareness and becoming and learning to love and see each other – I’ve had this really unique experience of having an unanticipated open-heart surgery.” 

Expressing her feelings during the surgery, she compared the experience with that of a non-runner who had signed up for a marathon and winning would fetch her life ahead.

She also expressed how she never wanted or expected this to have happened but some eternal power gave her strength.

Thanking everyone who contributed to praying for her good health, she reiterated, “And so I want to say thank you to each person who said a prayer for me. Prayer changes everything. Let’s keep those prayers going for our country and let’s turn all the brokenness into love and seeing each other.”
