It's raining in Frisco


Well...it had to end. We've been getting some of the nicest weather the past 4 -5 days - sunny and warm. A lot different from what I hear the Front Range has been experiencing. But now, it's cold and raining.

Not much new on the heart valve side of things. It seems as if the pain that I've been experiencing on the left side of my chest is subsiding. So that should be good.

My friend Ryan just had shoulder surgery, and it looks like he'll be out of action for longer than I was! I was riding my bike just shy of a month after surgery...he'll be out for at least 6 weeks and it'll be 3+ months before he's back in action.

So, maybe heart surgery isn't so bad after all.

IN THE NEWS: This is interesting to me, and I think it will greatly affect my future. Seems that two companies are competing to be the first one to release a new type of heart valve. You can read it here, if you're interested. Basically, it's a valve that is inserted through the femoral artery, and no open heart surgery is needed. Sweet!
