John, I've just discovered your journal and am very impressed with your accomplishments. Last Friday, June 23, I celebrated the 41st anniversary of having my mitral valve replaced. I had rheumatic fever as a child and was later determined to have a heart murmur. I did not have to have surgery until my late 20s. My mechanical valve is still clicking right along. I do have to follow a strict Coumadin regimen, though. Best wishes for your continuing successful recovery! Jane Griffin-Dacey, Longmont, CO

JR. I can't believe how out of shape you are...even at my age I can get to the mail box in less than 3 minutes...maybe they should have given you a "valve' from a rabbit vs a turtle. The green dress and the yellow high heels did make a fashion statement though. get well..... get strong ....get back soon

John Rubey Oh Terry. You don't know how much I needed that today. I had to get my "cough" pillow because I was laughing so hard when I read this. The "cough" pillow is a very high tech recovery device. Basically, It's a hospital pillow that they tape the shit out of and make it really compact and hard. It's needed for the following: Heavy laughter, Sneezing, Hiccups, Coughing, or any other violent chest movements. So when in need your grab this thing and hold on tight. It's a life saver for sure. Thanks for the note! Miss you guys. Give my best to everyone.
