    December date

    You don't need any 'special' pants. Maybe elastic waist are easier to pull up and down, but other than that, your regular pants will be fine. I lived in yoga pants for awhile. Or leggings in a larger-than-normal size. I spent my time shopping for the 'perfect' underware....and who knew what...

    THR And so, I Begin Again

    @gullimac ~ I think the word I would use is: Surprised! I hadn't given any thought to the possibility of the procedure ending my lower back pain (tailbone!) I thought any pain I had experienced was limited to my hip....but the added bonus was NO MORE BACK PAIN! Can't ask for more than that...

    THR Miss Muffet proudly presents - her new hips

    To put it quite simply, @Miss Muffet , you are AMAZING!!!! You aren't even a month out yet!! But...but....what are you trying to prove? Walking across that bare dancing floor un-aided? My dear, we must protect our investment(s). I do, however, trust Mr. M's assessment that you indeed could...

    Look at it this way @gertie ~ You've got three weeks + before your sister arrives! You will be absolutely amazed at the progress your healing takes by that time......PROVIDING you don't over-do and cause yourself a set-back. You have been doing so well up to this point, you're sure to...

    THR Miss Muffet proudly presents - her new hips

    Oh my goodness....you have a very busy month ahead! Good for you in planning to attend those functions and to see your friends. I'm not sure I would be so ready so soon after surgery, but you know best. And good for Mr M for being so co-operative in that you can bow out 'whenever'. It's...

    My goodness, Miss M, you seem to be progressing perfectly! Love your description of Mr. M's cooking shenanigans! You just sit back and be waited upon. And, you're only 10 days out and have already been out in the crisp air having lunch? You Go, Girl!!!

    THR Looking for input from those who are 1 yr+ post op

    Aren't you just the best, @DizzyBlond ? Has it really been 4 months for you and me? How fast the time has sped by! You are so right....NOT ONE of us should compare our recovery to others. Yes, we cheer each other on, give our own experiences, share the acts of patience, etc. but we each come...

    THR Miss Muffet proudly presents - her new hips

    Good morning, Miss M! Also adding how cute the pics of your 'fill-in Drs' are! And, congrats on your FA status.......but ....but....what good is that FA if you haven't posted much lately? We need more progress reports. Has Mr. M failed to hear your commands? Bring us up to date!

    @gertie - I've been gone for awhile but have caught up on your progress. YES!! I like that woman too....she's doing you well. You seem to be right on schedule. Once you have the confidence to go out to a restaurant you will find yourself 'almost' back to humanity!! My big thing about...

    @gertie - please go easy on yourself. You are still so early in your recovery process....and it is a process! Your normal sleep routine is like that of a baby....naps during the day...awake during the night. But your body is dictating that right now.....in order for you to not do too much...

    And so, I return...

    While you three are joining hands, I have my virtual arms wrapped around you in a group hug. You will all do fine as long as you are patient. I'm so glad you all will have this behind you.....once and for all....by this time next week!
