Temporary Unplanned Leave of Absence

Best wishes to you Jim, we will look forward to your return to the forum.
 
Are you getting a pig valve or a dog valve???

Stay away from plastic, I hate the quality of plastic products now a days.
 
All the best, I just had Foot surgery. Did not effect my typing finger.....
Bring a tablet into the hospital and keep us informed, when you can.
 
Best wishes to you. Take it easy and we all look forward to seeing you back here when you have taken care of what is important!
 
Good Luck! Hope all goes well and you can check in occasionally!

You will definitely be missed and thought about.
 
2 days and counting BB, kind of like a reboot. My apologies for not seeing this sooner.
Don't push your recovery, do as the doctor orders and know that we all await your return and sage advice.

Yes, I too am a Jim

Best wishes & lots of prayers for you Jim Bob !
Get well soon and get back here when you can.

20 days later and I am back sooner than I expected as the scope of surgery was smaller than what Was initially planned. I am now a member of the zipper club with a mechanical heart valve..... Still moving like a sloth (including smiles) and also bought a Tee Shirt with Tik Tok on it. My wife can heard my mechanical valve clatter,

Glad to be back sooner than I thought, but I really don't recommend the zipper for anybody if you can avoid it.

upload_2019-10-30_20-7-39.pngThank you for the kind words and support (prayers) It is and still is greatly appreciated. Now for another 6 weeks without picking up anything over 5 pounds....... any suggestions?

I don’t think an adult beverage weighs much, and keeps the mechanics lubed.
 
cda - side effect of open heart surgery and medicines - adult beverages are a no-no and after the recovery process, l be limited to 1 or 2 drinks a day on occasion.

Good news since surgery and not drinking or smoking since Oct 10th, I have lost 20 lbs ----- coughing and sneezing still hurt like a son of a gun ....
