I don’t think a Native Student slhuodn’t be discouraged to learn Native Language. Native Language is almost distinct in some Native communities. I for one didn’t learn my Native Language in the home due to my parents having to attend boarding school all I learned was in Public schools or in community language classes so now I have some knowledge of my language but not all because after I entered high school they took it out of the curriculum.

Thank you, Dottie. I have been doing well since my craniotomy and radiation therapy. I hope all goes well with you too! Other than having to take the medications, and of course having the surgeries, I can’t complain. :-)

Wow, you have had quite an ordeal! I’m glad they caught it and that the operation was successful. I see how something like that could be a motivator to make lifestyle changes. Thank you for sharing, Dave.

I had this proceedure done about six months ago. In my case, I had twelve, areas that were becoming blocked so they did five by-pass grafts. The atherosclerosis was very advanced and the doctors had difficulty finding veins they could use.
My only symtum was sortness of breath. Taking a shower left me panting. I went to my doctor to be checked out to begin some type of exercise plan to build up my endurance. My EKG was completely normal, but I failed the treadmill stress test. I had an angiogram, and that revealed the problem. Three days later I was in the operating room. The procedure you discribe is exactly what was done to me.
The first six weeks of recovery were very difficult. Several nurses and doctors commented that my recovery experience was worse than most. Now I am much better. I am stronger and feel so much better than when I first went to my doctor. I am happy to be alive. This expirence has liturally changed my life. I am eating healthier and I have lost 30 pounds.
Every day something happens that reminds my about what was done. I have some problems with pains in my legs at the sites where viens were harvested for the by-pass. I still have pains in my chest, and other places, and of course, there is that unmistable scar on my chest. It is a good trade-off!
It was an interesting experience I hope to never repeat.
