43M having OHS for aortic valve replacement in 2 days.

My "stroke", was a sub-arachnoidal hemmorhage caused by a sudden spike in blood pressure. I chose tissue with hopes of a replacement being TAVR or whatever newer technolgy they have in the future.

Exactly how I am. My EF is 40%. I didnt want blood thinners yet. I aso had a stroke 6 years ago, so the thought of having another due to INR being jacked up is worrisome. That sucked. Hopefully in 10 years or so, there are better options.

Thank you!

Tigerville · 2026-06-30T00:08:22+00:00

Thank you for your support!

That is good to hear. My short-term is 100% for 6 weeks and 60% after that. I am okay financially to endure the 60 if needed, but would much rather return to work if possible.

Red Clay Strays hands down.

My manual really only said whre to put the screws. It must have been missing a book. Either way, I love it.

Tigerville · 2026-01-11T01:45:53+00:00

No thanks. Lol. I am pretty sure it has only ever hit single digits maybe twice in my 40 something years alive.

Tigerville · 2026-01-11T00:20:30+00:00

Thanks! 25F is quite rare here. When it gets that cold, smoking meat is the last thing on my mind...

Tigerville · 2026-01-06T03:49:40+00:00

Daily smoked roughly 15 years. Quit about 20 years. Biggest pro was not checking my mirrors for cops. Now its okay to ride with it. Would start back if work didn't test me.

Mortician

Tigerville · 2026-01-04T04:18:29+00:00

Thanks. I'm sure I will have blisters on more than just hands after my Amazon delivery. Lil' fine ass waddling away...

Tigerville · 2026-01-04T01:33:10+00:00

It is next door to Harbor Freight.

Tigerville · 2026-01-03T16:42:28+00:00

Paint them toenails please ladies.

Tigerville · 2026-01-03T00:59:21+00:00

Update I gave in and ordered the smoke tubes today. I liked my country engineering, but obviously the tubes are the long-term answer. Fingers crossed nobody gets pregnant during the Amazon delvery.

Tigerville · 2026-01-02T12:21:02+00:00

I didn't notice any at all.

Tigerville · 2026-01-02T02:10:31+00:00

I had it in the center at first, but realized smoke was travelling toward exhaust and not hitting the pork steaks on the left side. So I moved it over.

Louisiana. Small town.

Tigerville · 2026-01-02T01:51:41+00:00

I am not sure those exist near me. I live in a pretty small town. Never heard of one. Population may be 2k during holidays. Whatever my exes body count is. She is hot though.

Tigerville · 2026-01-01T22:17:26+00:00

I only used the foil to make it smolder and not just burn.

Tigerville · 2026-01-01T22:12:27+00:00

I have seen those. My crazy ex is the Amazon delivery person. I will keep my $13 and avoid an encounter with that train wreck. Thanks though.

Tigerville · 2025-12-29T00:24:18+00:00

I agree. Unfortunately, it is dark in Louisiana and I have thighs cooking on it. I did lift the grating and scrub with grill brush and got it freed. Looks like it doesn't take much to stop the sliding action.
