My dad had open heart surgery and had 5 by-passes. First of all, the doctors said he could go home anywhere from 4-7 days, but hell, today we went down to visit him and he was ready to come home after ONLY 2 DAYS of recovery, actually, it was a few hours less than 2 days.

Me and the rest of my family are worried about that because it seems pretty early to be released, but the hospital said that he should be ok. What scares me is that my dad doesn't seem himself yet, he can't talk to well yet and he's still pretty weak and in a bit pain, but the hospital gave him the ok to go home.

What would you think ??? Heck, when my wife had our last daughter c-section, she was in the hospital longer than 2 days and my dad had open heart and got sent home before that.
