2 1/2 weeks post op and I walked a half of mile today on this beautiful 78 degree Florida Easter Day. Life is good!!! Happy Easter and Happy Passover everyone.
Congratulations Kevin! Hope your recovery is as bright!
Wow! That’s great, Kevin. I’m looking forward to being able to do that soon!
So happy to hear you are healing and moving forward in recovery!!
Looking good, Kevin!!!! At 9 weeks tomorrow post op, trying to walk my 10,000 steps a day. Wish it would get warm and stay warm but at least on cardiac rehab days, I can get those steps in on the treadmill!!! You'll love cardiac rehab!
Thank you all!!! You guys keep me positive and going! ❤️💪🏻
Looking good, Kevin. Happy to see you grinding out the footsteps! A true Floridian wearing a jacket in 78 degrees! Clearly things are back to normal already. 😎
