...my wife would like to know how long it took before you were back in your 
kayak again. In my
 case the damage to the coronary arteries was discovered before there was 
any
 damage to the heart muscle, so I am anticipating pretty much a complete
 recovery.


Chuck,
First I am glad this was caught before there was heart damage and I pray for 
a quick recovery. The answer to your delema is obvious.
Buy a double kayak, put your wife in the bow and you in the stern. She 
paddles and you work the rudder pedals.
This way you exert no force on your chest and your wife gets great aroebic 
exercise! Have fun being queen of the nile.

Bob
