I have brought forward this month's list so that you can easily see who your surgical buddies are.

Welcome to our latest and all April Rainbows!

However, please start a thread of your own in the Pre-Op Hip Section to post comments and share your journey toward hip replacement.

@bottomshollow I am writing to bid farewell to my April Rainbow status. I received a call from my os office asking if I want to move up to March 19 so.......I am joining the March Musketeers. I'll be waiting for you and cheering you on from the other side Scared and excited.

 

[teakea66]

So excited that I left out a word.......my last post should have said "I'll be waiting for all of you and cheering you all on".

 

[MajorHeidi]

@bottomshollow I didn't see @kpalms on April 9 or @hipster_chic on April 30 if I believe correctly on both these.....

 

[bottomshollow]

@teakea66, I have removed you from the April list and will put you on the March list.

 

[bottomshollow]

@kpalms and @hipster_chic, you have both been officially added to the April surgery list.

I apologize for having overlooked the two of you---thanks to @MajorHeidi, you're where you belong now.

 

[Kirk7]

April 8th - found this site searching for prep info and glad I did!

 

[fulafoto]

@teakea66 - good for you jumping forward to March - hope it goes brilliantly for you!!!
Welcome @Kirk7 Please let us know what your having done and a bit about yourself. Best way is to start a thread in the pre-op section. Good luck with your op too!!

April 15! Cleveland Clinic Florida. Anterior procedure on right.

 

[bottomshollow]

@Kirk7 and @VF, you have both been officially added to the April surgery list!

 

[bamagirl]

April 24th for my left hip. Right one is doing good so far. I will be happy to have them both done.

 

[bottomshollow]

@bamagirl, you have been officially added to the April surgery list! A second new hip! WOW! There'll be no stopping you.

 

[jhmills]

April 8th... I get a new one on April 8th!

 

[bottomshollow]

@jhmills, you have been officially added to the April surgery list!

 

[doggievet]

Finally--April 7th for left side. If I don't chicken out now...

 

[JoeL]

I know what you mean, doggievet , but April 7 will be here before you know it. I just read more of the recovery threads of how everybody's hip pain is GONE.

 

[doggievet]

Thanks JoeL. I have been reading & reading and posting and thinking. It's just very surreal right now. And, of course, today was a "decent" hip day, so makes me feel like I could stretch it out a bit. Of course, then tomorrow will be miserable, so I might as well stick to it!

 

[MajorHeidi]

Hi @doggievet and @JoeL we will all be surgery buddies. Mine is april 10....
