Welcome to recovery Angus! We had our surgery at the same place—I'm amazed you had Dr. David (I thought he had retired)—you were blessed…so was I! World class care and expertise. The hardest part is over as far as repairing your heart…now you just have to be a patient patient :) and take it super slow and steady as others have said, but you will also be amazed at your progress even a few weeks from now. I pray you have a full and uneventful recovery—it will feel amazing to be home! ❤️🩹🙏🏻

Thanks so much Sue! Recovery is going great at home. Thanks for all your prayer, encouragement and advise along the way! Dr. David was truly amazing. I think he showed up all 6 days i was in hospital. I asked him does he ever take a day off and said he would try and visit after surgery the next day. I think he's over 80 and did 100% of my surgery for 4 hours. He also did my Dads surgery in 1988!!!

Thank you for all the kind words of encouragement and prayers! It all went great! Thank you Lord and thank you Dr.David and his team! Feeling great about all of this, I wish I didn't wait 2 years. They just moved me out of ICU! This pic is taken 28 hours after surgery!

Thank you all for the kind words. Not gonna lie, day 2 has been rough with pain in incision in chest when they took me off hydromorphine to Tylonol and Oxycodone. Just hurts with attempting to take bigger breaths and getting up to walk but feeling positive just painful. vitals are good!
