50. Based on what they've told me, somewhere between 3-5

Feb 14

Days after surgery depending on my recovery.
The said second or third day I should be in regular ICU after first two in CICU.
At that point they'll start removing some of the hoses and other things protruding from my chest, throat, stomach or leg.
Once I get on my feet a little, they'll accelerate and either throw me out in 6-10 days or rehab me in a separate facility. I will try to send a Frankenstein type message out as early as I can. That's a promise.
So look for the all capps
IT'S ALIVE message lol
