Ok, I just got home from the hospital. Healing is going to take a while for sure. It turned out to be a triple bypass. Used my phone and took spme pictures of the scars, but probably won't post them. Too ugly for public consumption.

Hey coastie,
Glad to see you posting again. Take care and get well soon.

Very very sore, especially when I cough.

Hopefully, once healed, I'll be back to the yard work with fewer problems than what I had in the past. Probably won't be doing any this year though.

Take it easy for now! You wouldn't want to cause yourself more trouble, would you?

Coastie: Glad to see you're still chipper... I have a whole new perspective on aging and growing old. Don't confuse the two. The later is just a state of mind. I strive everyday to pass on some of the knowledge bank and create some memories that will last longer than I will.

Nope. Don't need any more trouble. I am taking things easy and wll not put myself into an uncomfortable position. The Nurse supervisor just called and was going to look for someone to send out this weekend. I told her I was doing ok and to just wait til Monday.

Hey smax, Yeah, just the post op stuff from the split Breast bone and that sort of stuff. Once they are healed then the pain will subside along wth it. Had one nurse tel me, not to be a hero and use the pain killers if needed. So far, I haven't needed them too much.

Still have good days and bad days. Feel pretty decent today though for a change. Had to find someone to do my yardwork as I won't be able to do it, at least this year.
