I was told by my doctors that on April 12 2022 ALL MY RESTRICTIONS caused by my Open hear surgery are removed. YEAAAA !!! I called my surgeon yesterday to verify I could be normal AGAIN !!! I can can even resume scuba diving !!!
Those of you who have not had this type of surgery have no idea how HELPLESS one can feel. My wife is my best friend .She had to do it all.Such as feed the horses every day throw them hay. TGhe hay bales weigh between 30 to 45 pounds. For 2 months i could only LIFT 5 pounds. Then my restrictions reduced to being able to lift a maxium of 20 pounds. As of today i can be a man and help again :) A bag of horse feed weighs 50 pounds so my wife would make 3 or 4 trips to the car or truck and carry 15 pounds 3 or 4 times to our to our feed bin and dump it in the bins./ You all have NO IDEA how BAD I FELT having my wife do this. Some times friends would come over and drive my tractors to put out large round bales also.
I am sure there are wives all over this world that are just as good as mine BUT THERE ARE NONE that are ANY BETTER

KAREN I LOVE YOU and THANK YOU !!!!

Thanks SD But i am not at 100% Just all restrictions are lifted. I still do not have the energy and breath I used to have but that will take time.
In 2007 I had a horse stumble in a shallow river crossing and rolled on me fracturing my pelvis. I have had trouble walking ever since but it is something i deal with. It will take time to get back to 100 % but I am WORKING ON IT :) THANKS AGAIN !!!

Keep working at it but take it slow. When I had my heart attack and double bypass surgery, my wife ran our Ornamental Iron business, welded, painted, lifted and installed iron for about 3 months til I could get back in there. Some wives are great like that aren't they? That was in 2001 and I am doing great. You will get there Gare. Think positive, don't look back and keep faith.

Ironman I want to THANK you for your reply. A lot of people have no idea how nice it is to have a loving wife pull you through your hard times

Congratulations on your freedom! My wife's name is Karin also (spelled with an "I") and she was my rock when I was recovering from open heart surgery as well. We are blessed men to be sure!

It is a helpless feeling to not be able to physically do what you used to do. Go slow, keep going, and you will get there!
Creaky MAN did you HIT the nail on the head with this reply.

As you know I am now one-year post surgery, and I am just starting to get my stamina back. Unfortunately there was damage to the heart muscle during my heart attack, so I'll never be back to 100%. Just hang in there buddy - One day at a time!
