Monday May eighth woke up and could hardly get a breath so went to Emerg
Taken right away up to Cath Lab and had an angiogram that showed a need for four blockages to be freed up but angioplasty was out as I was diabetic so would wait until Thursday and go the OHS route.

So today is May 14th and my 34th wedding anniversary (best decision of my life) but for my 30th I was in a coma still from the 11th way to tick off the wife eh?

So today is the 21st (world still spinning) and four years ago I drift in and out of the coma frustrating my doctors (not to mention my wife) after all its been ten days !!!!! But I'll keep 'em working for another week !!!!

 

[Greg a]

Well I have been out of it for seventeen days now ....I guess it is about time I woke up.......damn cyst on my spine......... oh well I am alive and my wife still by my side

 

[Bina]

Isn't it cool when our spouses are still there when all is said and done.....

Wishing you all the best on your 4th.....and it's great the support you had from your wife....I wish I was that lucky.
Wishing you and your wife all the best

JULY 13thSo.... four years ago i was sent home with a wound vac (a man purse attached to my chest VERY FETCHING) trying to close my open chest incision and packing on my spine so daily the nurse came in........changed a dressing on my chest then on my spine and like a chicken on the spit I WAS DONE :eek2:

 

[Bina]

Greg, those wound vacs are not pretty. One of my fellow hospital inmates had one and it freaked me out.

Happy Valversary to one heck of a fella! And many more to you, Greg!!!

After falling into ANOTHER coma about ten days ago the doctors are pouring over reaserch and my files trying to save my life (white cells elevated) but I keep teetring and family is camping out on rotation BUT not my wife she won't leave !!!!!!! They decide that the only way to save me was to remove my sternum and so that was the path taken. Wait see is all that can be done then.
And so the big nap continues
