Tim’s heart had never warned him that it was in pain. Not until
kidney stones brought him to an HCA Midwest Health ER. Using tests
already being done to diagnose his emergency, we found he had
several severe heart conditions, including a leaky valve and a
blockage in his widow maker artery. Luckily, our expert
cardiologists are skilled in new minimally invasive heart
procedures and were able to save Tim—and his family—from a broken
heart.
How Tim’s kidney stones helped heal his heart valve.

A new musical adaptation of the beloved novel and the hit Disney
films is a heartfelt, comedic and unexpectedly emotional update on
the American classic. When an overworked mother and her
teenage daughter magically swap bodies, they have just one day to
put things right again. By spending a day in each other’s shoes,
Katherine and Ellie come to appreciate one another’s
struggles, learn self-acceptance and realize the immeasurable love
and mutual respect that bond a mother and daughter.
“A fast-paced, fun filled, very funny musical with a great message
for all ages”
- Variety

Tons,” “Great Balls of Fire,” “Walk
the Line,” “Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On,” “Who Do You Love?”
