So happy for you that your first post was sooo positive. Can't wait to read more when you are feeling up to it. Congrats for being on the other side!! I can't wait to be there myself (19days) but whose counting...You go girl, show that new hip "whose the boss" All my best ...Sue

Hi, Claire! Good to see you here on this side, you little hippie, you.

@MajorHeidi Woohoo!! Congrats on the new hip and welcome to the other side!! Watched for you into the night last night and I guess missed the new thread. I am so glad your pain has been minimal and hope that trend continues. Remember as everyone else has said, ICE REST MEDS!! You have so got this girl, love and hugs sent your way!!

So proud you've claimed your hippie status! I just know it's due to the influence of those sweet Oregonian dogs you have.

Oh, wait, wrong kind of hippie (though watch out for the pups... They may get you to follow Phish in concert one of these days).

Let me start again: I am SO pleased to have read your initial post just after surgery. What a great way to start your life with the new hip. I hope you slept well and that today feels just as good. I look forward to hearing how it goes!

Take care,

Mountain Girl <-- known to have resembled THAT kind of hippie back in the day, even if I never actually chased after the Grateful Dead. ;-)

You are Poster Girl for THRs!! Just fabulous. Am oozing envy...

It's just fantastic that you were discharged in one day based on those 4 criteria. I got out today as well, but it is two days for me. I'm so glad that your surgery went well. I know you were nervous about it. We're all nervous before something like that.
