Jeannette's Guestbook

Jeannette McLaughlin  Nice of you to say those words...thanks. My dad's name was John (he passed away in 2017, two months short of his 100th b-day!) So, here's to a long life and a short recovery!

Jeannette McLaughlin  Thanks! Pam for your comment about my photo. They say that 70 is the new 60…and you and I are a living proof! I also have a perimount magna bovine aortic valve (gotta love those cows!) Due to a complication during surgery with my heart’s electrical system, I needed a pacemaker (this came as a total shock). When I had the pacemaker reprogrammed close to two months after surgery, I was told I had A-Fib (I never heard that while in the hospital nor before). I mentioned this to my surgeon during the video conference and he says that A-Fib is typical after heart surgery (it usually goes away while people are recovering at the hospital) and that I probably don’t have it anymore. He said to ask my GP for an EKG.

Wishing you continued success in your recovery, Pam. Let’s keep in touch (I’m one of your followers). Take care.

Jeannette McLaughlin  Hello! Shannon – Sorry for the long delay in replying but I just saw your note today (I keep forgetting to check my guestbook!) My recovery was speedy and at times it's like I never had surgery 'cause I can do whatever I did before, minus lifting heavy stuff. Being healthy overall before the surgery, eating super healthy food, taking natural supplements (the latter two for 40 years) and exercising (all my life) played a role, I'm sure, in my fast recovery. I joined a gym three and a half months after OHS and the progress I make is rewarding. I hope you will soon get over the fears and worries…and take more steps forward than backwards! I’ve always liked the saying, “Yesterday is history; tomorrow is a mystery; today is a gift…that’s why it’s called the present!” As for my supplements, I order them from various sources, mostly Life Extension Foundation, Dr. Mercola and Epigenetic Labs. If you send me your email address, I’ll give you more details. Stay positive!

Shannon Gray  OH thank you! I would love to hear more... My email is charlesshannongray@yahoo.com.
Wishing you a wonderful day.

Jeannette McLaughlin  Hello! Lilly – Sorry for the long delay in replying but I just saw your note today! I posted this in Shannon Gray’s guestbook a few minutes ago, “My recovery was speedy and at times it's like I never had surgery 'cause I can do whatever I did before, minus lifting heavy stuff. Being healthy overall before the surgery, eating super healthy food, taking natural supplements (the latter two for 40 years) and exercising (all my life) played a role, I'm sure, in my fast recovery.” As for panic attacks, I still get them but not as frequently. Glad to hear that migraines and anxiety are under control for you. I keep busy with this and that (I’m retired), joined a gym in mid-January and enjoy snowshoeing around the corner from my place. I’m presently listening to the World Angel Summit with Doreen Virtue and enjoy so much what the presenters are saying about the angels and how to communicate with them. I’ve also registered for the 9th Annual World Tapping Summit, which starts next week. I listened to the event last year and thoroughly enjoyed it. I did a lot of tapping while at the hospital! Take care…and keep in touch (I’ll check my guestbook more often!)
