hey friends,
my open heart surgery is scheduled for monday the 29th. i am going to post Bow of the month contest a little early this month so i can get it going before i am in the hospital. I will be in the hospital for 5 or 6 days an when i get out i will be able to close it out and announce the winners. i hope every one is okay with this as this is the only way i can figure on getting it done this month. i am going to get my wife to log in under my name and update you guys on how my surgery went monday afternoon. hope everyone has an awesome thanksgiving take care. :) ~josh

We all will keep you in our thoughts and prayers, buddy. I'm glad your bride is going to keep us posted, thanks.

Don't worry about us Josh. Most of us have learned patience over the years of wood bow building. ;D I think we will let you by this time but don't make a habit of it! ;D
You guys take care and remember you are all in our thoughts. We will be looking forward to the good news from your wife after your surgery.

We will keep you in the prayers Josh. Don't worry about the board, just take care of yourself. I had open heart and an Ascending Aortic aneurysm repair about 4 years ago. I also have a Bicusbid aortic valve, but so far mine is stable with no stenosis. So I know what your going through. Lulyn is an ultra sound tech and dose heart echos as well and has been through watching me go through everything, so if she has questions or just need some reasurance fee free to have her call Lulyn. Let us know if we can help at all Josh. Please have your wife keep us posted on your recovery. Keenan

Yep, Don't worry about us take care of number one. We'll be thinking of you and wishing a speedy recovery!

Josh, I wish you all the best for your surgery, and man, I wish you good patience with yourself afterwards!!! (Believe me, I know what I'm talking about)

Thanks everyone for the prayers and words of encouragement... :) It's getting closer to time and I must admit I am getting a little nervous about it but I know I have some of the best guys in the whole world praying for me right now so thank you all. :)

Keeping you in the prayers bro, First week can be a little rough, and they will have you up walking the next day. By the end of the week you'll be doing laps on the floor and they'll cut you lose. ALWAYS keep that teddy bear close by for coughing or sneezes, It's a bummer when you don't have it. Also keep in mind it's normal to get emotional for weeks after open heart surgery. Something about someone literally touching your heart. They warned me and it is definitely true. Call if you or your wife need to. Keenan

We will be thinking about you Josh and ditto on the Teddy Bear He will be your best friend for a few days

Thanks Ron :) Everyone tells me it feels like you are coming apart if you don't support your chest when you cough or sneeze. Not looking forward to that at all.

Gosh Josh, I can't imagine the anxiety you must be feeling, but it's got to be good to know you'll have so many people thinking about you. Take it easy, rest well, and don't be worrying about BOM and let that new bride take care of you! Best of luck my friend and God Bless You.
