The worse part of heart surgery was waking up with a breathing tube in. Its not even close.

I feel like Dr. Mark was fantastic in my surgery. What really impressed me was the night before he came in talked to me and my wife and prayed for us as well as with the team he was going to be working with.

I have no memory of waking up with the tube or them taking it out. I’m thankful I don’t remember!

In the morning at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jC6-48-R1hg&t=450">7:30</a> for me! At peace yet wanting to get it over with. I'm like Bruce and know i'm in God's hands with a good surgeon. Thankfully, spending the night at home.

I honestly thought the cardiac rehab was not for me. I went 5-times on Wednesday & Fridays and all I did was 10-minutes on the stationary bike & 10-minutes on a treadmill. I started walking at home everyday and thought that was more beneficial for me.

Im going for a triple bypass and will now be less frightened of the garden hose down my throat. Knowing more about it and not to panic is a big thing. Thank you.

no matter what they say, coming awake with a tube down your throat and choking you is terrifying.,

I'm 58 and live in Seattle. I just had open heart, triple bypass surgery. My angiogram two Wednesdays ago showed a dire emergency admittance to Swedish Cherry Hill Hospital. I'm 7 days post, at home and I am just trying to get comfortable with the incision tightness, bone, muscle pain, etc. Your discussion is so relevant because I noticed guys in their 40's and up to 70's having this surgery. It's a topic to bring awareness and save lives that have so much more to give. I felt as a Father, Brother, Son and Husband, I had so many folks relying on me. I'm blessed and most fortunate. I liked and subscribed immediately. Cheers Mate!
