  1. Slept wrong and my open heart surgery scar aches. :(

I can see why you went with 3, surviving open heart surgeries account for at least +1 badass.

Don't forget the +1 for a badass scare and a story to go with it.

And a +2 for surviving 2 heart attacks

My goodness! I'm glad things went well during the open heart surgery. How long is the recovery for such a thing?

Pretty sure it's lifetime. Surgery was at the end of 2018, they cracked me open like a lobster. I've got a 10" scar from just under my chin to just over my belly button.

2019 was one complication after another.

2nd heart attack in January.
