Ready to go...

[TIM W.]

I have a busy day ahead and I'll be leaving for Erie early tomorrow morning for an appt. with my surgeon and then with the anesthesiologist, blood work at Hamot, and a "cardiac class". I'll be staying in Erie tomorrow night so I won't be online just before I go. I just wanted to say thank you all for the kindness and support I have recieved from each of you.
You all have helped me tremendously with my fears and anxieties and I appreciate it deeply.
My wife, Donna, is going to try and post an update for you all when she arrives home Friday night. I will be back on sometime next week and will continue to post on my progress. I must admit that I'm still a bit nervous, but at the same time, I do look forward to my recovery and getting back to feeling better.
Thank you all so much again and I will talk to you again from "the other side"!!! Tim
P.S. My son thinks I might "mooo" once in a while because I'm getting a bovine valve!!! Any of you have this problem???

Hi Tim,

Best of luck with everything. I'm sure your in good care and it will be over before you know, and you'll be home wondering what all the fuss was about.

My wife bought me a couple of "MOO" momentos after my surgery. I make sure to wave to all my new relatives out in the field when I drive by.
