Today I am 4 weeks since surgery. I'm feeling great, walking everyday and getting some good rest. No real pain in my chest except for a little tightness that seems to move around from day to day. I had a great Christmas and plan to have a Happy New year.

15 days since Surgery and I'm doing great!! My wife, who's been by my side throughout took me Christmas shopping at LL Bean in Freeport, Maine 20 miles from my home in Auburn, Maine.... Positive Mental Attitude combined with great care & faith in God!!
Looking great! You will really enjoy your Holidays this year!
Awesome, Charles! So happy for you! Looking great and your wife is a trooper, too! 👍
Wonderful to see you looking so well Charles! I highly recommend brunch at the Harraseeket when in Freeport:)!
Faith in God, a positive mental attitude, and a beautiful supportive wife - a great recipe for a successful recovery. God bless you both & Merry Christmas. - Cheryl
