Health update: This week I had follow up appointments with my heart surgeon and my cardiologist. I am healing well. I can even get in and out of bed under my own power! Not as critical as being able to get off the toilet (an earlier milestone) but a positive thing.
I have bouts of shortness of breath, made worse by my respiratory allergies. So I sit down, take my time, catch my breath, do my breathing exercises.
I have been out of the house, I take short walks around the neighborhood. And I’ve gone to several stores with Gary. No dog walking for quite some time though.

You’re doing well, take it one step at a time if you feel tired or short of breath take a break, but you know that already. Each week will show your getting better and stronger just don’t over-do it. Make sure you take your meds at the right time every time I learned the hard way about that. Glad you have someone there to keep an eye on you which should provide a comfort just knowing they are there especially if you need a little assistance in like the bathroom.
