Yesterday my wife came home from the hospital after a total left knee replacement. Since she planned to have the surgery we have talked with what seems like hundreds of people who have had them. The stories that we got, like you might imagine, are of pain - big pain. Loved ones that were caring for them have told me of how difficult the recovery is - so we were hoping for the best and bracing ourselves for the worst.
Difficult to express how well Debbie is doing. She doesn't seem much more put out than she was prior to her surgery. She is getting along so well that her mother likely wasted a trip to come care for her while I am at the office. She is putting herself of the CMP that is used 6 hours a day to keep the knee moving, walks around the house - gets up and gets her own medication and has even been outside! These are "therapies" for her. She smiles through all these activities too. My love, my hat is off to you once again, for not only meeting your challenges but doing so with style and grace.
