Weezy I Think We All Are Different And We All Do What We Can Do. For Me It Was The Only Answer. I Have, So Far, Done Really Well. I Have Been Able To Cut My Pain Meds Back Considerably And Today, Two Weeks And Two Days Post Surgery I Did Some Laundry, Loaded An Unloaded The Dishwasher And Cooked Dinner Tonight. I Am Able To Shower By Myself And Am Beginning To Take Care Of Some Of The Housework. I Have Not Had To Use The Walker For A Couple Of Days, Am Just Using A Cane, Although My Pt Did Tell Me To Keep Bringing My Walker To Therapy As After An Intense Workout It Is Difficult For Me To Walk The Distance From Where I Do Therapy And We Park Although Yesterday I Walked And Held The Walker Up And Sort Of Carried It. I Just Hope And Pray I Continue To Progress At The Rate I Am. I Want To Get Back To Where I Have A Life. You See My Knees Gave Me No Warning When They Went Out, They Both Sort Of Just Went From 60 To A Dead Stop In One Day. When I Had Them Scoped There Was No Cartlidge In Either Knee And Was Bone On Bone. I Have Yet To Understand How That Can Happen But It Did. Anyway, Thank God We Live In A Time Where Tkr Is Possible And We Had Good Insurance.
By The Way, Congratulations On Your Getting Your Degree. You Are Never To Old To Get A Degree And You Should Be Very Proud Of Yourself. I Have Never Let My Age Stop Me From Doing Something. I Think We Women And Men Too Are Getting Better As We Get Older. Rowdy
