Brother had heart surgery?

How do people react to drinking alcohol mildly after open heart surgery, and the occasional smoking of marijuana. surgery was for the mitral valve.

btw this was 4 monts ago and has good clean bill of health rt now w/doctor(Doctor Knows but doesw not approve)

Both, alcohol and marijuana cause blood vessels to dilate... means poor recovery.

Your brother has to decide if he want to stay alive... or live a life.

Sure the Dos can 'keep him alive'..... but he has to change if he wants a 'life worth living'... and drugs are not going to help there. I have never heard of 'mild alcohol' !!!
Wake up!!!

After open heart surgery, smoking mildly marijuana and drinking mildly? Did I get your question right? Valve replacement?? Look if I got your question correct, my advise is:
-If he wants to screw up himself again do whatever he wants to do or
-If he wants to live for a little while on this planet for some weird reason he can follow what his surgent"DOC" says.
As clear as mud. Good.
