Cheryl Mann Thanks everyone! Tomorrow is the big day - back to work - just desk work for a while. I won’t see patients for a couple more weeks - need to build up a little more strength/stamina for that. :)

Fred Earls Awesome, haven't thought about a pillow fort. We are getting an AirBnb and staying in town, Atlanta, for a few days afterward.

Glad to see you smiling under that mask!

Deena Z Love it, Cheryl. Looks very comfy. Plus might I add, you have your java and Fuji water within reach. Nice touch. :)

Cheryl Mann Yes Nancy - I highly recommend- it’s just 2 cheap pillows from Target - I did not have a sternotomy incision, but the extra support for my arms kept the “car jiggles” from bothering me. I even slept some on the way home.
And yes -Deena - I had my coffee, water where I could reach it. I also kept my incentive spirometer (breathing exercise) in my lap so I wouldn’t forget. My drive was 3 hours long , so my surgeon wanted me to stop to walk one time too.

Dylan Kempers You look fantastic, Cheryl! I had MV repair surgery 4/19/21 and was advised to sit on the back seat, because if I'm sitting on the front and --God forbid-- I'm involved in an accident and the front-seat airbags are activated, they may impact on my incisions. I wanted to share this with you in case you find it useful. :)

Fred Earls Wow! Just seeing you smile gives me some relief as to how quickly I may be able to feel back to normal after surgery. All the best to you over the next couple of days and weeks.

Cheryl Mann Scott and Jill - they offered me a nerve block - basically they numb the nerves to the surgical area - it is done when you are already unconscious and it lasts up to a day or 2 - you end up more comfortable and need less pain meds. I found that pain meds did not agree with me - I am managing my pain w plain Tylenol and an ice pack (I did get a few doses of IV Toradol the first couple days - it’s a little like IV Motrin/ibuprofen).

Scott Kinghorn Great. I'll ask for it. I've had toradol before. Thank you you for the info. Glad to see your out ... Read more

Scott Kinghorn Great. I'll ask for it. I've had toradol before. Thank you you for the info. Glad to see your out of the hospital. Hope fully you can give me more info on what to expect pre-surgery and post. When you have the time. Thank you very much. Happy healing.

Nancy Denny Way to go Cheryl!! Prayers for a speedy , uneventful, recovery! Love your pillow fort!

Cheryl Mann Thanks everyone
