Okay, So I've been out of the loop for a bit (Took a few days from home improvement and went on a mini vacation) and missed your new addition. He's beautiful!!!
Missed your new job story as well and I hope all goes well.:)
So new knee in June at 4+ months post op you think you can play on the grass like a kid with the puppy. Okaaaay.....
I thought it would be a good idea to try sitting in the bath a few weeks back. It was wonderful!!!! Then it was time to get out! :yikes: I had no idea how to get out! I sat there like a fool with Himself saying you can't stay there forever and me saying yes I can just get me a pillow and blanket. :rotfl:
I did find a way to do it though.
Moral of story....We are 54 with knee replacements. :snork:

The Boston RED SOX....WIN the WORLD SERIES....at Home :happydance: :happydance: :yahoo: :yahoo:
It' been 95 yrs. since they won at home. Last time....1918.
Party on my fellow Bostonians :martini: :martini: :cheers:
Diana...Proud to be from Boston :yes!: :yes!:
 
It was most exciting, especially since my husband was rooting for the Cardinals - he is a National League guy.
It was so great that it happened at home.
 
We were thrilled!!!! Big Red Sox fans. My husband born and raised in Mass and I lived there many years. Yay!!!

Diana, I hope you have a wonderful weekend- you and that darling puppy of yours! Hope you are well! I am doing fine. Done with PT... pretty much on my own other than a post OP next week with my Doctor...I really do not have any questions or issues other than some stiffness. More some days than others... Do you have some stiffness still? I am sleeping much better now. It gets better all the time thank goodness. Take care my bonesmart buddy!:puppysmooze:
 
Hi Diana! What a beautiful pup! What kind of dog is it? What kind of job will you be looking for? Hi Gazelle....sounds like you are doing great! I am right behind you.....still have some stiffness, but things are slowly getting better and better.
 
Well folks...update... 5 months....Nov.3, 2013.....
The knee is doing fine :) a few clinks & clunks, but they don't hurt so I don't worry. If I sit with my legs crossed
They get stiff, but I can do it. I would say my R.O.M is 140, I can almost touch my butt :egypdance:
Work is fine...life is fine...love is fine :wink:
Next test for my knee...shoveling snow. I raked leaves all day today ( no problem)
Thanks for listening, I hope you are all doing well in your recoveries...

Hello my fellow Bonesmarties :friends:
I am updating my recovery by 1 week...to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving !!!!!
Let's see....December 3 will be 6 months for my new knee :yahoo: I can now walk
Pain free :happydance: Still a little stiff until I get moving.. I have slept through the night for
2 months now :sleep: No pain meds for 2 months :ok: Back to work for 2 months :yes!:
All in all a very good recovery. I followed the "mantra" to a tee & am here to say it works :yes:
I am very hopeful the next 6 months will be wonderful :dancy:
I have much to be thankful for in my life, health, love, peacefulness,
Sometimes I have to remind myself :heehee:
I hope everyone has a wonderful THANKSGIVING & many happy "BLESSINGS...to all of you :angel:
Your Friend,
Diana :kittykiss:
 
So happy that everything is going well and I hope that you have a really great Thanksgiving weekend :egypdance: You have been such a sunbeam for the whole board :SUNsmile:

I am back into surgery tomorrow for an adhesion release - I'm hoping that it will resolve some of the muscle problems but the bone marrow edema seems to be a long term thing - but I'm really hoping that I will be able to drive :angel: But not so happy that next week will mark the start of my 4th YEAR with a walker :gaah:


How is that cute puppy of yours doing? Be careful with the Thanksgiving food:heehee: :puppysmooze:
 
WOW !!!! Update 6 months on December 3 rd. :yahoo: :yahoo: My knee is doing well :) I raked leaves
All day today ( in the rain ) we have a half an acre, so not a small feat. Knee did great.
I am a bit sore after I sit awhile, or wake up. But, if I am moving I have no pain at all :dancy:
I know the next 6 months, I will not even think about this knee. I will just get up & go :egypdance:
I am almost there already.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas Holiday....I have started shopping...I will be done in 2 weeks :spin:
A message to all the new folks....it get's so much better :SUNsmile: you will be amazed !!!!!!
To all my Bonesmartie :friends: thinking of you & wishing you well,
Diana :flwrysmile:
 
6 months exactly......December 3, 2013 :dancy: :spin: :happydance:
I just walked our new :puppysmooze: 2 miles...I didn't think of my knee once :yahoo:
I knew the day would come where I could just get up & go....without a thought.
I am official there :yes!:
This surgery has been more than I ever could dream, Love my O.S.
Have a great day everyone,
Diana :flwrysmile:
