So hate making a post like this…

Good luck bud. Hopefully the hospital doesn't have a DEI program when it comes to surgeons.

Good ole Italian boy from Cleveland doing it.

Yahoo! I assumed everything went well with the surgery. Glad to see you online again after the surgery and thanks for the update.

Just try to get more rest.

It’ll take a few weeks to get your energy back. You’ll be fine

Glad it went well

Actually pretty amazing how fast things are moving.

Able to sit up in a recliner and did a full lap waking the ICU without stopping and damn near normal walking speed.

It’s tough - the brain thinks everything is normal- but then legs and back laying for 48 hours and got a Christmas tree of IVs (slowly getting rid of those).

Not a lot of pain - only doing Tylenol and some morphine this morning that made me nauseous.

Worst parts - removing the breathing tube and the catheter - neither were pleasant. Kinda one handed at the moment with left swelled where they took a vein from that arm - but yea, feel 1000% better aside from not being able to take deep breaths.

thanks for positive thoughts/prayers and comments. All downhill from here - much love to BMR for keeping my spirits positive throughout this.

If they are giving you morphine, they need to give you something to offset the nausea which I’m surprised they haven’t done. Since you’re not a person who takes painkillers on a normal basis. Glad to hear that you’re doing well and recovering rather fast.

Very happy to hear this, DJ.

I know it's still too early to ask, but if everything goes well with post-op and all the stuff you mentioned, how long do you need to wait to be released from the hospital?

Jeffrey, you’re in no position right now to think straight. Let me send you over some documents to sign.

Awesome report!

Alright my man. Sounds like physical therapy has already been to your room getting you up and walking. That's fantastic.

Keep up updated buddy. We're all praying for you.
