Heart Surgery

You got this. I know it's been a long wait. I'm glad to see you getting it done. I need another fishing trip.
 
I’ve had two valve replacement surgeries. Both involved the aortic. First in 99 second in 2014. It’s no fun but it beats the alternative. Plan for a 4-7 week “vacation”. start walking As quickly as possible. Take laps in the hospital and then your neighborhood or dirt road when you get home. Sleep in a lazy boy recliner the first few weeks when you get home. From experience. Let me know if you have any questions. .
 
And if your fat like you suggested a great side effect is you can lose a lot of weight during your vacation. I wasn’t overweight but lost plenty as a side effect.
 
Prayers sent! Congrats on the weight loss, get this surgery behind you and get to fishing !
