Hi Richard, how are things. Donna, is good to hear from you.

Lol that would be hilarious Richard! I agree Pam everyone's heart rates went down after petting Bear! Amy and Anna recovery is going well as they took me off my diuretic it was causing intense shoulder pain …blood test revealed dehydration.

Awesome..recovery seems slow..but it is amazing the progress..I remember being the last person out of the rehab sessions. I also remember some people doing absolutely nothing....or as little as possible

You just brought back some great memories. I have to admit, cardiac rehab was a pivotal point in my recovery. I went from feeling emotionally and physically exhausted to completely empowered. So glad to hear you're loving it as well! 👍👍👍

Thanks Grace! Too funny Stephen about some people doing nothing! My copays are too pricey, I need to make sure each session counts!

I'm feeling good but still in CICU. I almost went to the step down floor this am but my blood pressure is on the low side so until I am off the stronger medication I have to stay here. ….which isn't bad my own nurse😂😉‼️No, that's my boyfriend, John but... Read more.

Look at you and that beautiful smile! Congratulations. I had a male nurse in CICU. His name was Bill and he was a great nurse. Then my husband (named Richard) took over at home and I had it made.
