Just want to start a thread wishing DeWayne best wishes for a successful surgery and uneventful recovery. We will be waiting here to hear all good news. Godspeed.
Seeing you, your medical team, and all your loved ones surrounded with loving, healing light. May you have a completely successful surgery and smooth recovery!
DeWayne,
Many of us will be thinking of you tomorrow, since we remember what our own experience was in going through replacement.
My best wishes go with you on your journey.
Godspeed,
Mary
Thanks everyone. Had pre-surgery yesterday, all is go. So I will be there at 6:30 AM and soon there after into surgery. I am feeling a bit anxious, but I know everything is going to go ok. Plan to mow the yard today and get a haircut just to kill some time lol
One nice thing they told me yesterday is that all rooms are private. So once out of ICU and on the main floor I will have my own room plus there is a bed or something that Gwen can sleep in is she wishes to stay the night. Which is nice option for her to have.
My goal is to be out of there by Wednesday and back home. That is my goal
Thanks again for all the well wishes! I will return soon to let you all know what I thought of the experience.
We look forward to hearing that you met your goal and hope that Gwen will check in and let us know how you are doing. Bes t wishes and prayers going your way.
Hopeall goes well for you and will be praying for you tonight and tomorrow. I am sure that the night beforeis hard to sleep so I am going to pray that you sleep well and that everything goes well. Hang in there and hope to hear good news.
All rooms in the Heart Institute at my hospital (Inova) were private also. That was a huge plus. Plenty of room for family members, plenty of room to maneuver when getting up to walk or shower. Sounds like you've got a good situation. Again, all best to you and Gwen.
