Before you go, you might have the docs look at that discharge first. That's not a good thing.

I'm setup at my big Sister's place. Had a nice AND TASTY dinner of roast chicken, corn, salad and Frank's Red Sauce (which if some of you were reading my facebook or Taproom posts last night,) I was craving something with flavor. Though it's higher in salt than I wanted, this is a special occasion. We found a low salt cayenne sauce online yesterday.
Man, that's messed-up. But yeah, get it checked.
New around here, but your posts have helped me through some questions and sticky moments. Good luck with the cardiac rehab. Expect it to be tough, but you'll get a lot out of it...those folks are miracle workers....You'll get into the gym in no time...

Welcome back, Revvy.
I think they know it's time to discharge you when you start bitching at them about the lack of sleep and terrible food.
I had similar experiences during my one extended hospital stay of 4 nights. By the time I was ready to go home, I was one cranky ****er. I just wanted real food and to sleep more than 4 hours at a pop.

Glad to hear everything went in your favor. After recovery, healing, etc., time to fire up the kettles!
Revvy, good luck on your surgery. I'll have to brew a bacon beer in your honor.

Way to keep up to date there.
Ok, so I haven't been online for a while...
Still, I hope he's doing well.

Pics or it didn't happen. Taken in my goth neice who's away at college room that I'm recoverying in's room at my sister's house. Not a great pic but you should be able to see the incission, the bump where the pacemaker is at, the bandaids covering where the chest tubes went in, various other holes where things were jammed in, tape goop from the ekg leads and maybe even the bruises from the countless ivs and needle pokes. Handsome ain't I?

Looking sharp, revvy. Keep on keeping on!
Godspeed Sir
You should have turned on those Christmas lights. They would have been a nice touch on the photo!
Seriously, you can tell you've been through the fire, but you came out better on the other side!

Personally, Revvy, I think you should get a zipper tattoo over that bitchin' scar. That, or you can tell the ladies some punk pulled a knife on you once.
You don't have to tell them the punk was a cardiac surgeon.

That's not her in the pic on the mirror....but yeah. She is way hotter than....heck your grandma is probably way hotter than me right now (even if she's no longer alive.) LOL
I'm actually pretty proud of my neice/goddaughter, she was a talented dancer and she turned down dance scholarships and even invitations to dance companies to go MSU on a debate scholarship, got a pretty good ride in Michigan State's public policy college, and pre-law. Her only drawbacks are her choice of MSU as a college and her decision to be a vegan....
Us at her HS graduation in 2009...

a vegan? ok you lost me there

I like PETA. That's People Eating Tasty Animals, right?
And there goes the hotness, right out the window...
I have that shirt somewhere.
I had a cousin who got a mechanical valve.
You could *hear* it when sitting across the dinner table. Click, clack.. Click, clack..
I asked him if it ever got annoying.. He said yeah, but god forbid it ever goes quiet
Godspeed sir, and welcome back to the fray!
