Hi, i am home from the hospital after my bypass on the 18th of Aug, had to go back in to clean up a blood clot on the 21st, but I am home now!! Still hafta have a nurse come by & change dressing & give me a shot everyday till further notice........I'm still in pain, tolerable, sometimes, sometimes it so bad I cry, and I have a high tolerance for pain. But I know I am not alone, that helps so much!! Prayer helps alot too! I gotta go back and see my Doc on Wednesday to take out my last drain pod thingy, I had 3, 4 including the drain that leaked thast green stuff. It's gone.... But I'm home with my wife & kiddos, my 3 year old baby girl saw my incision. The look on her face was a Kodak moment. She said I had an owie!

It is good to hear you are home. Everyday it gets a little better. Are you taking anything for the pain? I took liquid loratab. Your are in my prayers away the pain. joni.RNY.6.27.2005 261/222/151
