First time mowing! 4 months post op, almost done with cardiac rehab. Things are getting more back to normal. Dropped our youngest off at college last weekend, the empty nesters phase has begun.
Your doing a great job there Dave. The lawn looks great too!
Congratulations, Dave! You are an inspiration to all of us!
I'm around 4 months too and it does seem like the getting back to normal point. With a few exceptions - some afternoon naps in particular.
The empty nest part I'm sure is the hardest part. I'm not looking forward to that.
I just passed my 4 month point too and mostly back to normal with a few exceptions like Valerie. Still sleeping a lot after working full time. I think I will feel back to normal after I wear my heart monitor and hopefully be free of a few meds after... Read more.

Welcome to recovery Dave, and yes Pam it's better on this side. God bless you both 🙏❤️👍
Welcome to recovery where we have some control!
And he is smiling! Afib is the pits. I hope he converts out of it soon. Welcome to recovery! Time to listen to the doctors and listen to your body.

How is Dave doing? Have been thinking about you both. I just got back home on 5/1. My AFib and lung issues were a challenge but being in the hospital was the best place to be. Hope Dave has had the afib fixed. 🙏❤️
