To 10 I said zero they were in awww i was walking within a few hours i was in the hospital for 5 days got home and I felt like I never had an operation no pain breathing with ease i stayed in the house for a week and a half then went to the hospital to see my doctor and have an exray done of my chest done so she could see my lung she was amazed with my recovery so she said I will see you in a few weeks keep doing what you’re doing Kevin with a big smile i replied what about working she said Kevin you need at least six more weeks for that i said to her i just came up three floors using the stairs and my oxygen level is at 100 i was like dancing around the room we were in i said look at me i can’t hang out at home I’m going out of my mind she said promise me you won’t lift anything more than a coffee cup and do what you’re body tells you omg I was almost in tears thanks for your help to my team at wentworth Douglas hospital and mass general hospital
