Hi GROG, Dan read your log last night at the hotel. He thinks you are a creative writer. He thinks you really did see that nurse but are hiding the fact and her from us. We are looking forward to having you all healed and ready to party. We are waiting to hear about the result and next step. Hugs, Wendy |

Grog, My baby sister had open heart surgery 8 years ago. She had "electrical" problems (heriditary) plus much blockage & is a member of the "cracked chest club." Missy said that they gave her a stuffed heart to hold when she was experiencing pain & she was very upset when she vomitted on it! (they gave her a new one) She is doing GREAT! & if my baby sister can do this, a grizzled old cave man can do it too! ~kele |

GROG they will tell you to hold the pillow tight to your chest when you cough or laugh. I think you will have a lot to laugh about as you tell zipper jokes. When is your next appointment? (: Wendy |

GROG meetng some heart surgeons next week at Providence St. Josephs, and trying to set up an appointment to see some heart surgeons at Cedars Sinai, but they wont' be available to meet with until first week of August. Been updating GROG' journal pretty regularly, so far. |

I just finished reading about your rear end (car) and heart and bank update. 50! in September, you are really just a kid so you should do well. I would be sad not to see you at Oasis but some things are more important. Best wishes always, Wendy |

If things keep progressing as slow as they are, GROG may end up being able to go to Oasis. But, that remains to be seen. If you have trouble remembering to check the journal, you can click to receive an email that notifies you whenever GROG make new entry into journal. |

Grog, Just read a bunch of your blog/ journal. Wishing you the best through all of this. I do know that staying positive does help healing- and hoping the doctors do their part, too! I've always asked my doctors tons of questions through a variety of procedures, I may have to steal the Bonus questions at some point. Wishing you all of that good stuff. David / Tiki Ano |

Grog, I have been enjoying your blog. I like the fact that you are considering your surgery your second birthday. That's the way I have referred to the day I had the heart attack. It was my second birthday. It's good that you can avoid the blood thinners. I will be on Plavix for the rest of my life. My cardiologist actually told me to avoid car accidents so I don't bleed out. No joke, that's what she said. I joke that I don't really have blood anymore it's more like colored water. I have recently begun carving and I am getting more serious about it and so I have invested in good gloves and a sturdy apron just so I don't puncture myself and bleed out. I hope everything goes well for you, I am thinking of you. My father had quintuple bypass surgery and everything went just as it was supposed to and his recovery was super fast. The miracles of modern medicine are just that. |

I just read an article in popular science that it is better to get heart surgery during a full moon. I didn't post a link because it was based on old data and speculative, but you can search for it easily if you want to see it. Just wanted to let you know that we all hope you are doing well. |

SON- OF-A......... ! If GROG get it the last week of August, like GROG was hoping, then it will TOTALLY be in the opposite part of the lunar cycle!! Let's hope the data really IS outdated. Thanks for your concerns. Read GROG' heart journal you bastards! It's funny. http://www.heart-valve-surgery.com/journals/user/erniekeen |

You Blog is so good it should go viral or at least catch a virus. I've signed up to be notified when you post but going to the site I found a whole bunch to read, or if my memory is really that bad, re-read. I am looking forward to seeing you at Oasis. Keep on blogging dear friend, Wendy |

Clearly, I've been out of the loop for a while. Sorry to hear that GROG is in need of surgery. In case your doctors are unable to locate suitable instruments for the operation (on you in particular), I might be able to send you some of mine. Have a blast on the 28th. Will it be televised? Stay in good spirits. I'll be thinking about you. |

Thanks ya'll. I'm worried. I still haven't kicked this cold yet. I go into the hospital tomorrow for pulmonary test and chest x-ray. The heart surgeon's office told me to tell the surgical coordinator how I feel and she would determine whether we need to reschedule surgery or not. Who the hell went to Oasis and gave me a cold?! Atomikitty and her husband came back and got a cold also, so it was definitely from Oasis. |
