Knee replacement progress
Hi Folks,
As promised, here is a follow up on my progress since
having a total knee replacement on 27 October. I am
happy to report that my theropist tells me I am way
ahead of most in my recovery.*G* The staples came
out over a week ago. I quickly moved from the walker
to a cane and have now retired the cane only three
weeks after the operation. I am faithfully doing all
of the prescibed exercises with excellent results
to date. The strength is steadily returning and I am
able to get out and enjoy the pleasant weather of late with the wife on some daily outdoor walks. I
have also been able to reduce the pain meds by
probably 2/3 since surgury and should soon be off of
them entirely. I am already walking without a limp
which I could not do prior to the surgury.*G* So
life is pretty good in SC and prespects for a great
spring/summer is really looking promising.*G* After
sitting out this past summer, that is indeed a good
thing.*G* Thanks again for all of the emails and notes. Warm regards, Jim

I've tried to change him. I've pleaded. I've cried. I've talked about the family reputation. Every Saturday, out he goes with gasp, the clubs. 8T
