1st time behind the wheel in over 5 weeks. Felt good to be back on the road

Lynn Loudermilk Michel yea did for me too, 1st time was iffy, but now feels great!

Marie Myers Yes, that was a great feeling!

Deena Elani The simple things we take for granted. Congrats to being back doing the simple things, Michael!

Mike Tontillo Hey Michael, I'm just a few days behind you. I can start driving again on Thursday in 2 days. Can't wait. Had a few quick questions as we have a lot of similarities. I too had an Inspiris Resilia put in just one day after you. Are you on any medication? I am still on amiodarone and blood pressure beta blockers probably for another 6 weeks. Also, it looked like you had a full sternotomy. Did you have an option of having a smaller minimally invasive mini sternotomy? Thanks and I am glad everything is going well.

Cheryl Mann That smile! Love it!

Adam Pick Love this!!!

Julie M Congrats, Michael, I know that feeling! After my April 2019 OHS (mitral valve replacement, tricuspid repair), I jumped back into things on the first day I was cleared to do them!... Driving the car, mowing the lawn... And I celebrated my one-year-to-the-day post-surgery by getting up on the roof of my house to take down a limb that drove me crazy for months (and to sweep off leaves and debris). (I'd been told it takes a year for the sternum to be totally healed.) Being able to do that at 68 years old was glorious, and after OHS, even more glorious! All best for your continued recovery.

As a former chef, I love to cook. It’s been over 4 weeks since I’ve had the energy to get back in the kitchen. Felt really good to be back in the game. Linguine with homemade tomato, olive, basil sauce

Jill Boroniec Looks amazing!! Strong work chef!

Lynn Loudermilk Michael wow, very cool. I never had training but I was a cook for many years. I am going to try to start cooling dinners again next weeek.

Ana Brusso Yum...

Cheryl Mann That looks fabulous!

Susan Lynn Looks delicious!!

Fred Earls Ok, you upped the challenge on this one! That looks delicious. I'll do my best to fry an egg after surgery.

Deena Elani Home made sauce, Michael, you're killin' me. The presentation in the pasta plate has the look of a pro. (Bottle of white, a bottle of red, perhaps a bottle of rose instead:)

Hector Romero That looks delicious how are you doing Mike I had my surgery April 13 it's now the 25 the of April and starting to feel much better I got the resillia valve ... Read more

Richard Munson Wow, that looks good. Making me look longingly at my last can of dinty moore beef stew as my wife has banned salt.

Patsy Stewart Former chef?? I think you’ve still got it! It looks delicious!

So the doc gave me a picture of my aneurysm (first time I've actually laid eyes on it in 6 years). At 5.0cm, it's not as big as some that are operated on, but he said it is very big in length. All that circled part has got to go.

Thomas Brusstar That’s a cool image! Very helpful to see exactly what they are talking about. What is that? Some kind of CT scan?

Michael Morrison Yes had a CT last week, and this was one of the views that it generated. I got a video of him spinning it around in 3D as well. There were other "cool" views ... Read more

Michael Morrison Yes had a CT last week, and this was one of the views that it generated. I got a video of him spinning it around in 3D as well. There were other "cool" views of navigating through the "slices" from head-down perspective, that I wish I had gotten video of, as it really showed just how big that sucker really is!

Susan Lynn Very interesting image. Thanks for sharing!

Marie Myers Looks a lot like mine did...
