TKR Hopefaith's Ups and Downs of Recovery

[hopefaith]

So, some of you got tagged and others not.....sorry. I am too sleepy to go back and fix it and editing doesn't seem to correct it anyway. Posting at 2:00 isn't probably the best idea, but it is nice to know you all are out there when one feels so alone.

@hopefaith

BoneSmart is a 24/7 service.

There is always someone here for us, time zones and geography are no concern to us.

Hope you get some sleep.

@marmora what time is it in Dublin?

 

[dogwheels]

Hi @hopefaith - sorry you are not getting a good zzzzzzzz. Lovely Autumn day here and I am off with husband to watch him mend his boat! Splendid days!

(Actually, while he does that I am snicking off to my fave dress shop for a natter with the owner and perhaps find a few delectable delights? Nana Moon has warned me to take a big bag so I can hide them from view. Good thinking!)

Wont be around all day

@hopefaith
It is 9:45 am
What time is it where you are ?

 

[hopefaith]

@marmora well now it is 7:05 a.m.

@hopefaith

7:05 am in Colorado is 2:05 pm in Dublin.
So Colorado is 7 hours behind Dublin time.

@hopefaith Good Morning! Sounds like you are doing somewhat better! Yippie for wearing jeans! Every milestone should be celebrated! One step at a time. Have a great day!

I wanted to rip them off at the end of the day

@hopefaith Some day in the probably not too distant future you will have someone who wants to do that for you!

@hopefaith - I'm so impressed that you were able to tolerate jeans! I'm not ready for that at all! We must have been practicing the changing of the guards as I was up until 2:00am when I was finally able to sleep. However, that got me up too late for morning service. I feel that when the messages speak to us, we are where we need to be.

Hope you have a great day!

 

[hopefaith]

@msmechanic58 My knee Olivia was definitely complaining by the end of the day.

@Phil75070 I don't even know what to say!

 

[hopefaith]

@msmechanic58 it is amazing how that happens. (Talks speaking right to where we are). I went last night. They have Saturday evening services too. I could not have dragged myself out this morning.

@hopefaith

One of the things I like about BoneSmart is that, no matter what time of the day, there is always someone here.
It does help when you can't sleep, or when you feel alone.

I hope you have a good day today. I get the feeling that things are gradually getting better for you.

 

[hopefaith]

@Celle you are so,kind. Maybe I am getting a little better. I have horrible times in the morning. Just feels beyond awful for a few hours.

 

[marmora]

@hopefaith

It's 8:00 pm here, so only 1:00 pm in Colorado.
Hope you afternoon brings you better times.

Congratulations on wearing your jeans !

Take care,
Cathie

@Jozilla I couldn't find your thread. Many prayers and thoughts of you today. Check in when you are able. We all care how you are and want to cheer you on.

[Jozilla]

Thank you @hopefaith I am good but in a "step-down" unit due to sleep apnea. Waiting for an hour now to go to my room on joint replacement floor. This must be the worse floor in this hospital. My GP has been here 3 times trying to get things straightened out. I am afraid there is no hope. Same thing happened with my first knee - they will be getting a nice online review about this floor - NOT! Wish me well in making it from floor 2 to Floor7 - ridiculous!!! Sorry you got my vent!

 

[Pumpkin]

We all had some frustration with the hospitals. Seems to be the way it is these days. Hope life is better on the TKR floor.

@marmora thanks for checking on me. That feels good.
@Jozilla yes I hope you are on the TKR floor soon and that your pain is well managed.
