To all of those who are going in for surgery in the next little bit go kick some butt and remember its the journey that makes us who we are. I was playing hockey 6 months after my surgery. Be ready for some excitement, some low days (screw them!!!) lots more high days and keep smiling at the sky. We are all lucky that we found out about our oil changes that we needed. As I always tell my buddies on the baseball field- its not me you have to worry about - I am fixed and watched- I worry about the rest of my clown friends who could be walking time bombs. Go get them hearties and battle on - fight a good battle and enjoy our new found life. Best wishes and take no prisoners...................................... and as Rowdy Roddy Piper once said we are here to kick butt and chew bubble gum and we are all out of bubble gum.......

Hope everyone is keeping well in heart valve land. I continue to get stronger just a little stiffness in the chest, probably from doing too much but what can a guy do to keep from getting bored- gotta stop lifting stuff and doing stupid things. It is amazing how you can feel your energy slowly coming back to you on a daily basis. And screw the down days, they have very little power when you know you will be kicking them where the sun doesn't shine the next day. Oh yeah and aren't naps the greatest thing ever.
