The cardiologist said.....

That Mike is in the top tier of post op patients she's had.

She could not get over how good he looks and how well he's doing
(tee hee!)

Seriously.

She went on for about 10 minutes talking about all the things
he's done right and has going for him.

She simply could not get over how well he's doing.

He's lost 23 pounds since his surgery

From eating NOTHING BUT foods like this

(photo taken after last grocery shopping expedition)

The doctor asked him what he'd been eating.

I told her: fresh produce, low sodium, no red meat, etc, etc.

She thanked me for taking such good care of him.

I'm just glad he's doing so well and is expected to make a full recovery. :)

  9. I danced the same dance with my first husband Pissy. The only difference is yours is actually improving his lifestyle - mine did not and it cost him his life.

    I'm so proud of Mike and you. Yay for him and his fabulous progress. It takes A LOT to impress a cardiologist.
