Lynn,

I never thought I would miss hearing your "grunting" with Debbie for hours only to find out it's deuce, third game, first set - but I do.

Get well at your own pace.

Regina & Stan

Hi Lynn,
Happy to hear and see that you are doing well. Miss you at the meetings and look forward to having you back. You always manage to leave me with a hopeful little "gem" that I can carry all around with me. Thank you for that -
Best Wishes- Callen

Hi Lynn
yes no coincidence you were in good hands when the 'earthquake' hit. You are protected. But you know that. Gratitude is something you've always had lots of...and the grace to express it. Try saying the words and send the power to your new valve.
We just returned 'renewed' from a weekend in Philadelphia - a spiritual treat. Sending you the positive energies. Take it easy and feel the love.
Roshii & Satish

Hey this is great. Love the picture. Loading up on bacon, eggs and hash browns, are you?

So glad that all went well and you are in the recovery process. I can't imagine they'll ever have a better patient. If records are to be set and goals achieved, you're the one to do it.

Love and continued good health,

Bill & Jo

My Dearest Lynn, Be patient. There's no better place for you right now. You've been through the toughest days and you will continue to get stronger with each new day. Every surgery has its unusual setbacks. You've had yours; keep faith and trust in your Drs. Be still, stay relaxed, sleep as much as you can. Soon you'll be home for me to bring you much "joy" Sending love & hugs,
Debbie

Dear Lynn,
Wish you great recovery, great strength and vitality to cope with this new health issue. All our thoughts, prayers and love is for you to have a safe comeback.Yanni will be there for you, you are in good hands.
All the best
Antonis and Maria

Thank goodness you were in the right place when the "earthquake" hit. You're in good hands and will be home in no time I'm sure!

Love,
Carol & Dave

I am of the same philosophy, everything does happen for a reason. And so, it appears, you were meant to spend some more time exactly where you are right now. So rest easy, keep the faith, and heal just a little bit more!!! Love ya, Colleen & Steve

Wow, what a day! So glad you didn't get to take that shower, sounds like your nurses are gems. Keep us posted on your homecoming. Love Mary and Joe

Hi Lynn:

I am sure it was disappointing not to be able to go home today but better to be at the hospital if you are not really 100% ready to go home. You're not missing much weather wise-- it's still humid and right now the sky is dark, the lights are flickering and it's windy & raining here in NHP.I have been taking notes at my WWs meetings so I can fill you in on all the good tips I've been getting these last 2 weekend. Hope to read that you home soon.
Love, Vivian

Hi, Lynn

"Everything happens for a reason..." Yes, I agree. Glad this happened while you were in the hospital. I'm sure just a little "bump in the road." I know you'll be better than ever once the healing is complete. It was very interesting watching that cute British (Aussie? NZ?) guy's videos. Now I am hearing about a number of people who had this operation, all with great outcomes.

Have patience - you'll get there!

Love, xxx's
Connie

Hi Lynn:

Great to hear that you are are doing so well.
Keep up the good work. I'm sure you will be going home tomorrow. It is another very hot day. Take care, Love and Prayers,Carol G.

I was so sorry to read this, but good for you being on top of it all and dealing! I hope you are already healing--you are in my thoughts, Bill's too--fondly, Jo

After all these years I had no idea of your heart valve problem,I hope all is well now and repaired properly..Aldo had the same problem and went thru similar surgery 3 years ago and now can run the marathon.I don't expect you to win Wimbledon next year but I am certain you are going for th US open qualifying rounds and I will be there to chear you up.Be well.Fondly.Robert Fymat

Following your progress, we are just amazed.
Nick and I wish you all the best and you are in our prayers and thinking of you.
You are in our hearts and our minds.
Enjoy being the princess you know it want last forever! Love to you both from Nick and Renate
PS you know it took this technical wizzard a while to figure this out?

Lynn, You are just too funny!! There you are recovering from open heart surgery, and you have us laughing at your postings!! You are the best, and as such, you will recover in record time we are sure!!! Our best to Yanni too!! Love, Colleen & Steve

Hi Lynn, just wanted to wish you a swift recovery. Sounds like you're making amazing strides already! Hang in there -- lots of furry hugs from Sylvestor, and less furry ones from me - Cath.

Hi Lynn,

I am so delighted at how you sound & am honored to be included in this close group of friends & family to follow your amazing recovery & upbeat attitude.

Looking forward to talking when you are fully back..

Lots of love and well wishes,
Jill

Oh Lynn, it's so good to hear from you! Yanni is quite "the man", as we all already knew, and his gift was truly the best he could have given you at this time. I bet that Mertle is enjoying her assignment - as you are definitely one of the best, if not THE BEST, patient that she has ever had the pleasure to work for!!! Keep healing!!!! Love ya, Colleen & Steve

Hi Lynn you looked great with the old valva you'll look even greater with the new one the thursday night group is praying for you even me. Harry

Wowie, for a woman who worked for major corporations all these years and never knew how to work a computer...look at you with the most popular blog I know!! You're a celebrity! I am in "udder" delight (get it??) that everything went perfectly! I'm so proud of you and your strength during this time! And I can't wait for you to get better and get your derriere over here! Sending heaps of love across the map! Miss you and love you sooooo much! :)

Hi Gerri,

Thank you for the update and great to hear Lynn is doing well. She is one heck of a tough lady; her positive attitude is priceless and what is going to keep her spirits up and body strong.

Where can we send her some good wishes and do you know if she will have a phone in her room, if so, is she open to phone calls?

Many thanks,
