    My Mom is back at the assisted living. My sister from Virginia is with her this week. I will be going down to take her for staple removal next Monday. She will see the Oncologist on July 1.

    I saw my OS yesterday and I do not have to see him until March of 2016 unless I have problems or want the left knee fixed. Think life needs to settle down a bit before I think of the left one.

    Well, here I am again. Think the last time I posted, I was getting ready to go to Oklahoma to visit daughter and family for 2 weeks. I went and had great fun with the grandkids. Not easy keeping up with a 4 and 6 year old. Two weeks after returning home, I had to take my Mom for testing and she...

    Brenda, I wish this was not happening for you! Others have said it was a good thing having it done so we will just believe it will be a good thing for you. Did he say how long you would have to be out of work?

    Referee54, Where did you find that brand of ice pack? I found a small one at Walgreens that straps on to the knee but does not cover enough area. Definitely need something bigger!

    PT this morning. Made it to 120 on my own. Woohoo!! Saw my OS and he said the knee and me look really good. He said he did not want me to go beyond 130 with the ROM. Guess this surprised me a bit. See him again in 6 weeks. Good visit!

    PT was cancelled today due to the therapist having a sick child. So, I see her at 10 am and my OS at 1:20 tomorrow. Think all will go well but guess you never know. Also, the ice machine is going back tomorrow. They let you rent it for 8 weeks so my time is more than up. It is the kind that runs...

    Something about that 8 week mark that makes you feel better! I am at 9 weeks today and am doing well. See the OS tomorrow! Keep up the good work, Brenda!

    Made it to 118 ROM on my own today with no help from the therapist. Her goal was 115 on my own and mine is 120 on my own. I will be happy with that and it will happen at some point. Ordered a recumbent bike today and it should be in on Thursday or Friday. Really enjoy using the one at therapy...

    Returned from seeing my Mom late this afternoon. Drove down yesterday to take her to a doctor appointment this morning. She is in assisted living and does not get around well but I must make sure she does not fall. We make quite a pair! Knee is grouchy tonight. Actually, the old yucky knee is...
