chas - you have me wondering maybe what you were smoking or drinking when you responded to Gary's post. I didn't see anything there to get riled about. Just an observation.

Gary - as a heart attack, stents and eventual by-pass survivor (2001) let me say that the first three to four months are important in rebuilding your strength and stamina. You should feel pretty good by 6 months and actually look back in a year and say to yourself that you couldn't believe how far away you were from 100% until then. Keep up the good work and take care of yourself.
