Howdy from the healing one
So I am back home (as of Friday) in the next stage of my recovery process after my Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG)x4 surgery done on August 7th. I’m doing my best to take care of myself and follow my medical team’s instructions so I can heal up as efficiently as possible. I want to thank everyone once again for your kind thoughts and prayers as I move through this process.
It’s going to take some weeks before my sternum heals, and in the meantime I’m just trying to do what I’m supposed to do and keep a positive attitude. That’s tough some days, I’ll admit. The damage done to my body by this surgery isn’t minimal. I have all kinds of precautions and warnings to make sure things heal correctly. The worst thing I could do is fall, and so just about everything I do is very slow, methodical, and purpose-driven. It’s gonna be that way for awhile, I think.
My name, Jason, means “the healing one,” and it’s been a terrible joke much of my life that I spend a lot of time healing up from things. It’s something I’ve gotten good at over the years. This adventure is just the latest example. Thank you, everyone, for your kind thoughts and prayers. They mean more than I can say.
