Skiing for the First Time since CABG

I had CABG (Coronary Artery Bypass Graft) surgery about a year ago.  As a result, I missed the 24/25 skiing season. In November 2025, a test showed that the graft was operating below expected, which will require some complex stenting.    Despite that, I have rarely had any symptoms of the failed graft.   I was given the OK by my cardiologist to do some strenuous activities as long a there were no symptoms.

Since the test results, I have played doubles tennis and gone a vacation that had numerous walking tours and hikes.   No symptoms or issues.

I been a little hesitant to go skiing with my 13 year old, since I didn't want him to be skiing alone if I couldn't ski.   A couple days ago, I went out skiing with my college age daughter for the first time since the surgery.  Everything went well, and skilled the harder slopes, except for the most difficult one.   I will be going skiing again today and taking my son.
