Sensational singer and band musician Amy Grant recently had to undergo open-heart surgery to correct a rare heart condition called partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR).

This condition causes oxygen-rich blood to flow back to the lungs instead of other parts of the body. While the condition was asymptomatic and she had it since birth, Amy needed to have surgery done to correct it and prevent any issues in the future.

In February, the "Heart Awareness Month," Amy told fans that her doctors had discovered she had a rare heart condition since birth after conducting a battery of tests.

She also had five platinum record sales in 1991.

Following the news that Amy's surgery had been successful, fans took to the comments section to share their joy and congratulations. Most of her fans stated that the prayers would never cease on her behalf. Someone said:

During her career, she has released hit singles such as "Baby, Baby," "Marching to Zion," and "Heartbeat," among others. She also had five platinum record sales in 1991, which introduced her to a broader audience.

She has been married to her husband, country singer Vince Gill for 20 years, and the two have left their audience in awe when singing together.

Ultimately, it is excellent news to note that Amy's surgery went well, and like her fans, one can hope that she makes a full recovery in the days and months to come.
