All-
What can I say? The days leading to my RP were just the worst ever. As I am sure you can all relate, the fear of the unknown and the anticipation/questions/fears can eat you up.
I went in for my RP Wednesday at 8:00 AM and am home Saturday!
Another scary adventure: leaving the hospital. The ride home and walking up the stairs were very tiring, but talk about feeling so much better: no vitals all through the night, no endless line of visitory. Just Erica and I!
I cannot believe how great my incision looks, either! The whole experience, so far, has been so much better than I had imagined.
I won't go on for now, as I am tired again, but wanted you all to know that Dr. Oswalt said both valves were perfect fits, and it was just a wonderfully successful operation.
More later,
Bruce

Welcome home, the best place to be! After the ride home from hospital, I got out the car and walked round to the back yard to inspect my garden, I hadn't seen it in almost a week!

Rest, eat and nap, don't overdo it, and best wishes for a speedy and bump-free recovery from here.

What a wonderful post surgery post! I'm so glad it is going well for you. From what you describe it sounds like it has gone exceptionally well. I hope it keeps on like this until you are all healed up.

Welcome home, Bruce

Time to rest now for you and for your wife. Your post will be so inspiring for those going to surgery with fears!

I am happy that all went well my prayers that you continue recovery smoothly

I am sure you have some instructions from the hospital. As for me, I was advised not to go upstairs more than once in the first two weeks.
