Well folks, here it is Wednesday afternoon and tomorrow morning I go into the hospital for open-heart surgery to repair/replace the mitral valve in my heart. (Apparently, my arteries are all clean as a whistle, so I don't have to worry about that!)
I expect to be in there for about five or six days and then a good month of recovery at home... so on top of everything else, a good part of the summer will be shot for me!
The last time I was in the hospital was in January of 2015 when I got double pneumonia and had a hard time breathing....... which brought my blood oxygen level down to about 54%!!!!!!! (I got to ride in an ambulance from the doctors office to emerg!)
At the time I made a joke that if I didn't write within a couple of days..... everyone should just assume that I died! (ha, ha)
Well, they did assume I was dead because I was in there for almost ten weeks!
SO!
This time I ain't saying nuthin'.... just to be on the safe side.
The way I see it anyway! (Taken from my blog: "Allan's Perspective!")
