Revision TKR Story of My Knees by RestAssured: Pt 3

Just remember we are all here for support and we won't blame you !

Thanks Randi, I really think I understand how my husband can get so frustrated some times though, especially when I go zipping across the living room only to stop and we both hear a loud "pop"! He will ask where my crutches are and he goes and gets them for me. I have to say, after 6 years of both of us being hardheaded, we are finally learning how to help each other, instead of ignoring the problem. :)
 
Hey Sonja,
Thought I better check up on you! Especially after your kind post to me! Girl I'm prayin' that the rest of your body is as hard as your head is!!:wink: I type this with fondness now, because I can be hardheaded too depending on the situation and that's probably describes a lot of us.
So, just be you, and is it not just great to know that each and every one of us can just "let it all hang out" here on this forum? When we celebrate, or have sad/bad news or are confused doesn't matter! Keeping you in my prayers.

Thanks so much Nancy! I have more great days than I do bad ones so I try not to let the bad ones get me down for long! Yes, it is great where we have a forum where we can be who we are. I have visited another site where 2 of my friends got kicked off for disagreeing with the Facebook host. Needless to say, I don't bother with that site anymore. If I can't be true to my feelings, then I don't need to be there.
 
Kicked off FB? Never heard of that before! There was a time when all kinds of lewdness and profanity was tolerated. Now you can't even disagree with a mod? Jeepers what is the world coming to! :heehee:

Haven't touched bases with you in a while, Sonja. It's not because I've forgotten about you, pet, because I haven't. You're one of the pillars of this forum now :wink: and I am always in awe of your wonderful positive attitude. God bless you, honey.
 
Hey Sonja, although it's been a long time since I don't write here, please note that we are allways thinking of you in Spain, and that when I was in St. Albans' Cathedral (which is a town in the UK, near London), I left there a written petition for your recovery, so I'm sure St. Albans will be taking care of you (I know God is, but some additional help is worth it, hehehe). Go on supergirl. Lots of kisses. :puppysmooze:
 
:happydance: Awww Jo, thanks so much! You really seem to know when my spirit needs a little lift! I really don't know what I would have done if I hadn't found this forum when I did! People have been with through the good times and the bad, and always have been respectful in the forum. It is wonderful knowing that I can give back in some small way after receiving so much!

God bless you Jo, and I will be praying for you about your upcoming surgeries! II would love to see you doing the flags in church again on of these days! You have a rare talent that brings so much glory to God! :angel:

Oh, and by the way, if you need any "tips" on how to do recovery the wrong way, I'm your hardheaded girl" :giggle:
 
That's pretty good for 6 years ! My hubby and I have been married for almost 39 years, together 6 years before that -and we still don't always see "I" to "I"..but he tries...and I'm trying :happydance:!
 
Sonja,

There isn't any more that I can say that everyone else hasn't said. If kindness and a positive attitude were all it took you would be jogging to BJs house by now.

I'm wondering if you and Kate could get some more info about that knee cap and it's support system if you had got an echo of the knee and muscles while standing and flexing. An echo done while the knee is under the stress that causes the cap to dislocate could tell you if the issues is lax muscles, a popped tendon or if the pin isn't tracking in the knee due to a mechanical issue with the knee cap replacement itself. Just a thought... It non invasive and shouldn't hurt much except for when the cap goes off track.

And by the way good job on the school stuff...you have extra ordinary focus.

Thanks so much Chris! I worked hard on my portfolio today, it is due Friday, and I am about finished! Jacky, being the great twin sister that she is offered to do my work for me. I knew that they would somehow figure out it was my twin though so I wrote my main thesis paper this weekend and finished up the leadership and reflection papers.

Thanks for the idea about the non-invasive ways to find out what is causing problems with my kneecap! I will talk to Katie in the morning and see what she says!

I see a light at the end of the tunnel, and no it doesn't have a train attached to it! :happydance:
 
Hello Everyone! :happydance:

At this point I am just playing with and adjusting my portfolio! It is all but finished!!!! :happydance:

My hubby turned 44 today so I baked him a cake and he is coming home early.

"Now for the biggest news of the day........". My knee did a great job in PT today! It is getting stronger and it has decided to act better, I am hoping forever! :happydance:
 
Just don't do anything that makes me get this sign out to put on your lawn

. Follow the rules and regs, don't do stupid stuff, and stay your charming self. I'm happy PT went so well and that you're feeling good again. Happy Birthday to your hubby. Eat a piece of cake for me.
 
Sounding great twin sis! :thumb: Congrats on finishing your portfolio! I checked it over when you weren't looking and I think you did a fabulous job! :yay: Happy birthday to hubby, you kids are so young!
It looks like capsie is finally getting the respect it needs, now as Judy says, don't blow it by doing something stupid! We love you and care about you that's why we say this! It's called "tough love"!
By the way, what kind of cake is it? Is it chocolate? My favorite?

Stay well Sis!

Jacky,

It it German Chocolate his favorite. He gets to eat a piece on his b-day then we will send the rest home w Mom and Bro inLaw.

I didn't do anything "stupid" but my knee decided to act up anyway! :headbang: We were at the restaurant and as I was getting up from the chair, with pushing up the way Katie taught me, the darned knee shifted! My hubby was in front of me and grabbed me, and he handed me the crutches! Aaaaaaaarrrrrrrrgggggggghhhhhhh! Gosh now I feel better that I got that out of my system! :gaah: :wink:
 
Awe man, just when you were having a good time, and being such a good girl! Not fair! :hissy: You certainly didn't do anything stupid, sh-- happens, but it needs to stop happening to you! :console2:
I'm glad you got it out of your system! We're here for you sis! :friends:
Sleep well my dear! :sleep:
