Had to leave my brother's house 15 minutes after I got there on this CHristmas day. I am 8 1/2 weeks out, and for the past week, I have finally started feeling better about this knee. Anyways, I walk in and my one brother starts making smart remarks about me milking this knee. Guys he works with are back to work. Funny how there were several all having knee replacements at the same time. Anyways, the other brother starts agreeing. I asked if they researched any of this out, and they just kept putting me down. OK, so I walk to get a bite to eat, and my 2 sister in laws are talking about helping each other out. Funny not one of the four has ever called me since my surgery to see how I am doing, if I need anything, etc. Mind you, I am by myself!!!!!! How can I milk anything when I have to do everything alone? Also, in there was my 60th birthday, in which none of them even acknowledged. Sorry for the rant, but I know where I stand, especially in the time of need, with my own family. My son and dil helped, but they work, even OT, and my mom. That's it. I hope you all have better support than I.
