Elpidio

Hey folks it's 1:45am and later today is my big day I should be at the hospital at 5:30 am. I'm not as nervous or scared any more, I would have to say I'm just a little bit worried even though I'm sure that things will be fine. I want to thank all of you on this site I've soaked up quite a bit of information and inspiration from the stories and advice. Well I have to go and get some rest I'll post something as soon as I'm able. See you soon! ;)
 
My thoughts and prayers are with you!
We'll see you soon; please post when you are able.:)
Godspeed,
Mary
 
Praying for you today. Given the time change you are probably at the hospital right now, so here it goes,
Lord be with Elpidio, may your mercies guide each and every step of this day. Be with the surgeons and their team so that all will have a clear mind and steady hands. May your presence fill the room with peace and healing.

Amen

Randy

Godspeed! Marguerite
 
Hope I didn't miss you before you leave for the hospital- just want to extend my best wishes for a speedy and complete recovery. Godspeed!
 
Home finally!!!

Home finally!!!

Hi friends it's Elpidio I came home from the hospital just yesterday, 2 days shy of being in the hospital a full 2 months. My surgery turned out to be anything but "textbook". The day after surgery one of my lungs collapsed and I ended up in a coma for 10 days. When I awoke I had been placed on a ventillator. I was sent to a rehab/hospital where they weined me off the machine and I had to learn to walk and eat again. The valve surgery went well but my heart was in such bad shape they put in a pace maker also. I thank God and I'm grateful to be alive. I also want to thank my family and friends for praying for me and supporting me. I'll write more later as I tire easily I just wanted to let you guys know I made it to the other side!!!! :)
 
Sounds like you have quite a story to share. So very glad to hear all is going well now and that you are home.

Praying that things are smooth from here.
 
So sorry that it was such a rough time for you, Elpidio. I hope that things go better now that you are home and we will look forward to hearing all about it when you feel up to it.
 
Oh, my gosh!

Oh, my gosh!

I'm also very grateful that you are alive and now doing well. I pray that everything goes well with your recovery from here on out. You certainly have paid your dues. Welcome to this side! Hugs. J.
 
Welcome home! I'm sorry you had to go through so much. Very glad to hear your optimism now and congratulations for making it through such a long ordeal!

Take care.
