Ha! I think this process just gets really old! I generally grumbled and whined my impatient way through my easy, uneventful early recovery from joint #4 this past summer. I tried to cultivate gratitude for my otherwise healthy body that heals well, for the surgeon's skill, etc.--and genuinely felt it--but it was really easy to fall back into frustration with having to go through the tedium of recovery again. I felt better when I began to get out of the house for short walks or rides.Considering it's my 4th joint one would think I would have developed some patience. Not.
