Thank you Joy! And tell your Mom to hang in there! It's been 10 months for me now, and i'm still sore. But when i think back of what it was like when i first got out of the hospital, i don't let a little soreness get me down.

That pic of me in the hospital was taken by my wife when i was in the ICU right after surgery. If you look at the right side of my neck, you can see the tube still in my jugular vein. I was still "out" at that point. But i told my wife to take pictures of me. I knew that if i survived, i'd want to see what it looked like. So she took LOTS of pictures. I'm glad she did, as my memory would go in and out of consciousness.

Having seen my Mom in ICU after surgery - you look good! She has her sore moments too, but overall she has come through it really well. Where did you have your surgery?

I had mine at Columbia St. Marys, in Milwaukee.
Has your Mom gone through heart rehab? To me, that was a big part in getting back to where i could do things. It's ALOT of hard work. And you have to keep at it. If you don't mind me asking, how old is your Mom?

My dad's actually in the hospital right now after open heart surgery, he had it on monday, double-bypass. They didn't need to cut the sternum, they were able to go into the side so he might be home as early as tomorrow, but it's been a trying time for all and will be for a while now. Add one more to the list of battle-scarred!

She did go through rehab and she has kept up walking since - though now that walking outside isn't as easy, she's not gone quite every day. I think after the holidays she will walk in the mall on a regular basis. My Mom is 69.

Prayers and best wishes to your Dad! It is really scary and emotionally exhausting - but it is amazing how quickly they come through it! I have heard about that process - it's relatively new. That will be nice though - should help his recovery!

Porforis....my prayers are with your Dad and you. I know how hard all this is. He's lucky to not have to have his breast bone cut, as that is one of the hardest things to recover from. I wish they wouldn't have had to do mine. it's VERY painful. And for many months. Infact, mine still is.

Joy......tell your Mom to keep up the walking at the mall. It really DOES make a difference. It will help get her strength back.
And i KNOW it's hard! Just help her as much as you can! You can expect her to have some down times, where she gets depressed and doesn't want to try anymore. Just try to keep her thinking positive. It WILL get better!
Honestly, i didn't think it was possible to hurt that bad and NOT die.
