It’s been 20 years since the untimely death of actor and comedian John Ritter, star of Three's Company among many other TV shows and movies. John passed away with what was ultimately diagnosed as Aortic Dissection - a life-threatening condition in which a tear occurs in the inner layer of the aorta, the body's main artery. Dr. Jeanine Cook-Garard speaks with John Ritter’s wife, Amy Yasbeck, an actress and the founder of The John Ritter Foundation for Aortic Health, and Dr. Dianna M. Milewicz, the President George H.W. Bush Chair of Cardiovascular Medicine, Director of the Division of Medical Genetics and Vice-Chair of the Department of Internal Medicine at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston McGovern Medical School. Together, they are here to discuss Aortic Dissection and the vital work that The John Ritter Foundation does, which was created by Amy in his honor.
