    TKR My Journey

    Good morning, @FourCats. I hope your cough is better… that can be so aggravating, and, in these days, a concern. You were wise to see your Dr. And, as a bonus to your visit, he was able to give you some good encouragement on your upcoming surgery! I’d think his opinion as a Dr would carry a...

    Knee Infection* Adieu

    Hi, Jazzerguy. I was not really active on Bonesmart for a while, & so had to reset my password to be active again. Fortunately, my husband was able to help me (he was a software engineer for many years, but I’m afraid I’m still a bit of a computer illiterate). But, now all is well, & I’m able...

    Good morning again….I can’t believe it is mid-October already! We are now having true fall weather, & the trees have been spectacular! There are lots of trees in our neighborhood, & lots of color, & this year, no early freeze, so they lasted for some time. Now the nights are high 20’s & low...

    Foot Bunion surgery and more

    Thanks, @kiwicurls . I’m working on the “stork”, leg lifts ( like you suggested), and, we walk 30 minutes, just over a mile Monday-Friday. Hopefully, they will all kick in soon. The lighthedness seems to make the balance really irritating, but no doubt that will also pass. I think our fall...

    Hi, @kiwicurls. Thinking about you & wondering how you are doing. It is nippy here this morning, in the 30’s, I think by next week we will be in the 50’s during the day. We have so many different trees in our neighborhood, many 20 years old or more, & the color is just gorgeous! I’m thinking...

    Foot Bunion surgery and more

    Thankyou, Jamie! This has really been a challenge! It was better for a while, then, when our summer got so busy, we missed our walks for a while, & I missed my exercises. ( and, I probably was a regular on the ODIC, although, I’d forgotten about That! ). Would that accumulation of things...
