@smotu, thank you for sharing more of what is behind that “ton of bricks” feeling. With retirement, recovering at home, and so much uncertainty about what you want the next chapter of your life to look like, I can understand why cardiac rehab feels important to you for more than just the physical recovery.

You mentioned wanting to use rehab to refocus on getting healthier, both physically and mentally. I’d like to bring @briarrose, @thankful and @cynaburst into the conversation because they have talked about cardiac rehab, and they may be able to share if it helps with confidence or a sense or normalcy after a heart event, or what part of rehab is particularly valuable, and more.

@smotu, have you been given a start date for cardiac rehab yet, and what are you most looking forward to being able to do again as you regain your strength and confidence?
