Uh, I Walked Here

We’re about a month and a half out from my surgery and things are looking up. My main recovery goal to get to the Taylor Swift concert in Nashville is complete! We made it and other than my olde man knees, I felt fine!

My incision is finally clear of any glue and scabbing. It is still tender and sensitive, but pretty much healed. The chest area is getting better still rough to cough or sneeze. But not as much pain as a few weeks ago. I had my last meeting with my surgeon last Friday. He said for three more weeks not to lift more than 10 pounds, but after three weeks I could “do whatever I want”.

The last stage of recovery is cardiac rehab which I started today at Mercy Anderson HealthPlex. It’s Monday, Wednesday and Friday for 6 weeks. After my session today they asked if someone drove me or if I needed help to my car and I said “Uh, I walked here”. I don’t think they expected that. LOL.

Anyway, thank you for continuing to check in on me. I appreciate the texts, calls, and hangs. Busy week this week with rehab and other assorted doctor appointments. Now, I can really begin thinking about nutrition and exercise to keep this thing going for another few years.
