My husband's heart by-pass surgery went very well. He was lucky in that they were able to utilize robotic-assisted surgery. That meant they did not need to pry him open as far, which in turn has meant his healing process, especially for his ribs, has been much shorter. In addition, he's been a model patient and has done all his exercises. He's been religious about doing all the walking required.
We've been fortunate in that they found the blockages before he had an actual heart attack. He's now cleared to drive and lift heavier items (important for shopping and chores).
Which is good because I was injured at my work site and I'm wearing a full leg brace. Until I see the orthopedic surgeon I won't know what problems have come from that. I'm hopeful at the moment. But my spouse has to drive me to work and other chores that are difficult without two good legs. Especially since it occurred so close to the holiday. But Thanksgiving has come and gone along with the relatives, so I can finally get back to what I enjoy doing, and that's discovering ways to make my home and maybe yours better.
