You are in the BEST hospital in the world for heart surgery. I drive into Boston to MGH Cardiology because there is no where better!

Be Well and have a speedy recovery.

Lakesrider, nothing to worry about as this is routine surgery today. No cut sternum so you'll be back at it in no time and you'll probably have a lot more energy without a leaky valve.

What is/was wrong with the valve?

Prayers from around the corner from you in Hudson and Pelham. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Tired of Waiting · 04-16-2012, 07:37 AM

You'll do just fine. Keep the chin up and recovery will be easy.

oh, don't tell the wife but the doctor might write you a can't mow or paint for a year note. Just don't tell her you asked for the note!!

My healing thoughts and prayers are with you Lakesrider. You'll be back to good and at the lake before you know it because you can't keep a good man down!

Hugs,

Cel

Hope all the good wishes make you smile!

Good Luck Lakesrider, I will be thinking about you and will say a prayer for you. I am sure eveything will turn out fine!

Good luck & speedy recovery. If it's any consolation, a friend had similar repair surgery a few years ago and he's out and about and causing trouble just as much as before the surgery.

Lakepilot · 04-16-2012, 06:59 PM

Best of luck Lakesrider!

You will be fine LR:

I have been to Mass General. I went there after THREE other stinkin hospitals couldn't get it right....with my "Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm". Mass General got it right the first time they tried..(10 Hours).... and by the time I got there.... they only had hamburger to work with.. That was 14 years ago. No problems since.

Mass General is the THE BEST IN THE WORLD. This is not just MY opinion..it is the opinion of their peers....and has been for awhile.

Speedy recovery, feel better!!!

JerseyGuy · 04-18-2012, 06:44 PM

This is my first post and I'm pleased that it is to offer you a speedy recovery. I had my prostate removed using the DaVinci Robot at Mt Sinai in Manhatten several years ago. I was on my way home in less than 24 hours and only took one pain pill after the operation. I never experienced ED and within a month I had no inconenance problems. According to my experience, DaVinci is the way to go for many procedures as long as the surgeon is well trained. My doctor was David Samadi who is also on the FOX news medical "A" team.

Sorry, but having worked in cardiac care, MGH is not the best. And the best Children's hospital is CHOP, not Boston.

I say this as choosing the right surgeon or hospital can be all the difference in the world.
