Soprano Measha Brueggergosman has emergency open heart surgery
Canadian soprano Measha Brueggergosman underwent emergency surgery on June 10 to repair a split aorta, a rare and often fatal hereditary condition:
"'I am alive, and I'm quite good, I've got to say. Thankful,' she said

Ms. Brueggergosman made her Celebrity Series debut in November 2007.
