I am humbled today as I have for the first time read the comments posted here about my near death after surgery and two months stay in the heart hospital in Columbia, SC. It is only by the Grace of God that I am alive. My dear wife, Yvonne never gave up on my living and stayed with me for those 6 weeks that I was sedated.
I am re-learning to walk and can take a few steps without a walker.
I appreciate your prayers and expressions of love and concern for me.
Thank you again for your prayers.

Stephen,
I'm happy you pulled through it. When I got out of the hospital, your posts were some of my favorites, I looked for them every morning and they helped me get into a "right mind".
Mike
