Lake Tahoe...

Steve Farthing Great shot - reminds me of a place at Tahoe I used to visit in the 70s called Skunk Harbor.

Michael McMullen Was awesome Steve...Sandy Harbor is the shot.

Matt Sheffield Great pic. Love seeing folks like us living life to the fullest. I think it was said best on this site (I believe) Doctors don't just perform the surgery to save our lives, but also so we can LIVE life. Glad to see you doing well.

Michael McMullen Thanks Matt...great advice to "live" by...Nike said it best...Just Do It :-)

Michael McMullen I may have photoshopped it a smidge ...at least that's my story 😜😂 now if you look closely, I am now "uneven" so to speak...I noticed one side dropped an inch or more? My right one or is it left one. ...I had to check again, and it's not the photo, it dropped 🤓

Rita Savelis Please, Michael , Stop! You look great!

Michael McMullen Okay then...thanks Rita 😊

Linda Richards Agree Rita ... his scar looks great! Guys can get away with that. Michael, what are the two small scars on the bottom ... drainage tubes? Mine were on my right side near my ribs. One of mine looks like a Maserati symbol. Not putting mederma on that one!!

Michael McMullen Linda...The holes are from real long "Purse String Sutures" surgeon tied down...in my other pic right out of surgery , you will note gauze pad, that's where tubes were...and that was no fun yanking them out!!!

My Scar (Face) at 5 Weeks... Appears to be healing fine. My grandkids ask to see the face on my belly...haha.

Rita Savelis Looks great, and should fade nicely with a bit of time.
Take care.

Michael McMullen Yikes...lets hope not...keep me posted...will hold good thoughts. One thing for me, so far glad I went mechanical, mainly if all things continue well I will avoid the chances of another OHS...don't want to go thru that again.

Amen to that Michael , that's why I chose Mechanical, I can learn to live on anti coags but at 48 I'm not willing to go through this a total of anything more than once....unless it's absolutely necessary . Tissue valves are great for some folks and that's wonderful for them. NOT my cup of tea at all. I'll take my lumps with the Coumadin any day.

Michael McMullen Don't be surprised, we are all capable of more than what we may be aware of at the present...I am impressed I am where I am...don't let pain get in the way of recovery...pain is the output of healing. ...I caught a break in weather, even for Texas, unheard of to have 70-80 F in Feb, usually its the month we see "little winter" in the form of freezing rain and ice...but not this year (so far)...weather gods smiling on my recovery path :-)

Gary Stripling Congrats on making it thru surgery! It does get better. Follow your health care provider's instructions, don't be afraid of pain meds, and use your spirometer religiously - it DOES make a difference in your recovery.

Bob Jensen You look great Michael when I was out of the ICU and for the few days I was in when the pain meds just didn't seem to keep up I asked for a combo of Xanax and morphine on top of the pain meds and it was like taking a trip to heaven for a few hours if your folks will agree to that it's a marvelous side of relief
