Surgeon Testimonial

Michael W. Blaney, M.D.
When I first met Dr Blaney I thought here is a compassionate dr who is interested in his patients. He demonstrates this consistently whenever I see him. He is a great surgeon as I came through the surgery great and have had continued success as well as his support throughout everything so far. In the beginning he covered everything regarding the risks, and the outcome. The aftercare is great as he makes suggestions regarding vitamins and protein supplements to take. I knew from going to the first support group meeting in seeing him attend that you can tell he is interested in each of his patients having a successful outcome. WE didn't come all this way to fail and he is cheering each of his patients on from the sidelines I feel very lucky to have found such as great DOCTOR in Dr. Blaney.

Still Living Part time at the Hospital
My dad is doing much better but I am coming everyday and staying for at least 2 to 3 hours while my mom gets a bath and eats at home.  I have to say each day he is doing more and more.  Today was very eventful he was able to walk to the nurses station and back and he took a shower.  I know when I had my surgery that that first shower feels so good but it does wear you out.  He is supposed to go home on Tuesday and that will be good as he will be around familar things but he has to learn not to use his arms as he has sternal precautions. 
I have been trying to keep up with my fluids and protein.  The other night I came home and knew I did not eat enough protein so I sent my husband to Wendy's to get me a small chili.  Otherwise I am doing what I should.  I'll weigh in tomorrow and that will tell the story.
