After a successful aortic valve replacement Bob is now back living in the Carriage Cameo for his recuperation. He had a congenital heart defect of a two flap (bi-cuspid) Aorta valve instead of three (tri-cuspid). Eventually people with this condition require heart valve replacement surgery. Bob chose a tissue valve instead of an artificial one. He describes the surgery and recovery as being hit by a Ford F-350 and then the Carriage Cameo its towing and then being backed over :-)
With all this going on we are way behind in our email and blogging, both reading and publishing. We especially want to live vicariously through the lives of the snowbirds and Winter Texans since we will be spending the winter in the Kansas City area.
With walking, rehab, napping, etc it may take us time to catch up.
Till next time,
Bob and Jo
So glad to hear Bob is at home. Paul has to have he exact same surgery somewhere down the line. I hope he doesn't read the part of being run over. We also now have a F350 and Cameo.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear everything came out good. We are spending our first winter in the 5th wheel here in Platte City, MO..
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear the surgery went well. Now is a good time to go slow:)
ReplyDeleteWill keep you in our prayers for a speedy and complete recovery. We too, are also on hold with our travels. So I am really enjoying traveling through the eyes of all my blogger friends.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad to hear that Bob is doing good after the surgery. It's very stressful so you guys just take it easy and just post an update once in awhile so we know everything is okay.
ReplyDeleteWow! What a shocker. Glad Bob is doing better. You both are in my thoughts. Take care.
ReplyDeleteGosh, do we ever know about surgeries; Sandy just had three and I'm looking at one next month. So glad Bob is okay; best wishes for his speedy recovery.
