garmanma Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 Glad to hear that your dad is going to be alrightIt's one heck of a wake-up call, but like you said a little diet and exercise plus listening to the doctor, should work wonders Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TheTerrorist_75 Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 That sucks. It is a rude awakening to be told that you have suffered heart problems. I hope your dad has a speedy recovery. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hitest Posted April 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 Thank you all for the well wishes!! I appreciate that a lot. My Mom said she would only call me today if she had something more to add. She said no news is good news. She hasn't called today:)I'll be logging off here until later this evening. Going on my exercise bike now......got some flab to burn. See you later tonight:) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
baker7 Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 Hitest:I also send you my best wishes for your Dad's speedy recovery - Listening to advice can be hard sometimes, if you have been acustomed to doing things a certain way, and you get into a "rut" thinking your's is the best way to do something. I went to the doctors myself on Monday, and I am going to try to eat better and exercise more, and will have my left shoulder checked again on may 4 - I don't want to lose the ability to walk, and I need my shoulders to balance my body correctly I will pray for you and your family Brian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
