My cardiologist convinced me to "try" rehab as it would improve my mobility and stamina. I reluctantly complied and on my first day was somewhat overwhelmed by the amount and type of information I was provided concerning life style, diet, physical conditioning and health. I returned two days later a reluctant, exercise hating, participant for my first session but was told to go home because of my high blood pressure caused by my anxiety. Almost didn't return, but knew I had to or suffer the deadly consequences of being a professional couch potato. I went and after 36 sessions and life style/diet modification I GOT MY LIFE BACK.
I can once again participate in hobbies like traveling, woodworking antique restoration, go for walks and enjoy activities with my family. Prior to the rehab I thought I would never enjoy these activities again.
I want to thank those who made my life better from the cardio rehab department; Jana, Kelly, Brittany and of course Bill. Your patience, persistence, professionalism and consistent good humor were inspirational.
Thank You
Steve Squires
PS I even joined a local rec center to continue my physical activities.
