Hi John and Ray. this is ole bashful Bob After open heart surgery and an implant I was to months, up they called it two mo. That didn't fit my life style. Six hour after surgery I was up and walked to the bath room.
My nurse wasn't happy but assisted me ack to bed. After tthe evening meal she returned and asked if I wanted to walk again and I did. The next morning we walked 200 steps. by my self. That afternoon it was 500 steps , The next morning we walked down the hall. and on the third day I was told I could go home in the morning. I continues my walk progression but my ballance was off a bit. I had to correct5 that so I sat in a swivel chair turned my head up toward the celling not to much and turned my body and rolled my eyes another. then di figure eights with my eyes. u the way it also helps the eye sight. after about three weeks my balance improved.
the only complated problem I found was starting. You have to have the will power to help yourself. good luck guys if you come up with anyother thing Let us hear about it.

Good morning, @quietriver. (I like your Connect name!) You write (of John and me), "You have to have the will power to help yourself." I can't speak for John, but as for me: I can only wish I had the needed will power, day-after-day, morning-'til-night. 🙂 Most days, I have to "work" at it. Every day has its good hours, but every day (or at least most) has its "tough" hours, when, if I find my will power lacking, I have to have meeting with myself, a real heart-to-heart talk: "Come on, Ray, pull it together!" 🙂 Here's wishing you a good day, @quietriver! –Ray (@ray666)
