Thank You All

I want to thank each of you that sent messages yesterday from the bottom of my heart. If you only knew how much they meant to me.
I am holding my own for the moment. This cold air isn't helping things one bit.
I have raised the head of my bed up a bit more, but still wake up many times in the night. I wish that the center would hurry up and get the sleep study scheduled.
I have developed a squeek lately. I hope it is in tune with the music. LOL
I hope this finds everyone well.
Keep walking strong on your journey my friends.
One step, and then another, will get you to where you want to be.
Larry

About the Author
I am a male that underwent coronary artery bypass X3 (triple) on 10/22/13 at the age of 55. I was living on about 20-30% of one coronary artery and my left heart output was only 20% to 25%. I spent a week in the hospital after surgery and went home. Then had to go back a day later for another week because I had pneumonia. Finally a few days because of a slight arythmia. All told it has been about 2 1/2 weeks. I am past the cravings by now and only have the urges to contend with. I really don't suggest that anyone quits smoking using this technique though. I'll have to carry the scars from that day for the rest of my life. The large one down the center of my chest, and the ones from several "silent" infarctions. I came that close to the next world. Never again will I subject my body to that (at one point in my life I was smoking 5 packs of cigarillos a day). I now have to say N.O.P.E. (Not One Puff Ever) every day of my life.
