Robin Williams and David Letterman Share a Heart to Heart

The funny and amazing Robin Williams was a guest on the David Letterman show last night, and talked about his recent surgery to replace several defective heart valves. They really had a heart to heart when Letterman opened up and talked about his quadruple bypass surgery. Robin named David and himself, “brotherhood of the zippered chest.”

Robin explains his surgery, “I have one new valve and a repaired valve,” Williams said. “I have a cow valve — which is great, and the grazing has been fun.”

“The mechanical valve is great, but if someone uses the remote control, you fart.”
In a serious moment, Robin stated, “You do get a second lease on life, and it’s a gift.”
