De,
I have a question regarding your heart rehab..


Were you required to go to something called Heart or Cardio Re-Hab therapy around 6-7 weeks after your heart surgery?

I am supposed to start that next week wednesday late morning.. I'm going cuz my wife is dragging me there kicking and screaming.. I will go to see what its about and what it is they want me to do and IF it will have any meaningful impact on my heart or health..

I read an article today as I was researching outcomes of men who have open heart surgeries and the effects of them.

Basically what I read is that we have a shorter life span now than we did if we had not had the surgery.

I was kinda struck by that and it was from a highly resected cardiologist at Cleveland Clinic. I wondered if you had had learned of anything like this also..

I guess it beats dying suddenly and soon from having a fatal heart attack. But in essence, it really means my days are numbered and reduced. Longevity is a trait of the men in my father's lineage.


ON A POSITIVE NOTE, I wuz out driving today and running errands for MIZ Micro... She was and is housebound as severe acute inflammation has set in her right hip. I think she laid on it wrong a long time last night but she was a mess this morning.. A combinataion of heating pad and cold packs for about four hours greatly reduced the level of pain and inflammation plus Tylenol and Aleve.

Exciting day here for me..
