\"The first good news is that I am completely asymptomatic,\" Grant told fans at the time. \"The second good news is that it's fixable, so instead of concerts and camping trips this summer, I am going to take care of my heart. Are you taking care of yours?! Please do.\"

In June, Grant successfully underwent open-heart surgery to fix her PAPVR. About a week after the procedure, the six-time Grammy winner said her recovery had felt \"miraculous\" and she credited \"something supernatural\" for helping her get through it.

Grant appeared on \"GMA\" in August to give an update on her health and to express how \"grateful\" she was to have caught this rare condition when she did, all thanks to listening to her doctor.

\"If I have got something wrong, anybody could have something wrong,\" she told Robin Roberts. \"My message would be, take a minute and take care of yourself. You don't know that something is wrong unless you make sure it's right.\"
