Just a short note..........been off line for awhile. Went into the Cleveland Clinic Dec. 3 for hip replacement surgery. It went well and they had me walking the same day as the surgery. Four days later, was released to a Rehab center where I'll spend around 30 days to recover normal use. Access to computer is limited, so won't be on much. Happy Holidays to all 8)

...say hello to abuck76 for us, too...

Hope things go well with your rehab, Paladin.

Thankful your surgery went ok.. Merry Christmas..

Hang in there and Merry Christmas

Glad you don't good! I need me two new hips. Soon I hope

Get well fast--Merry Christmas

i know a few that has had that done

Hope you have a quick recovery Paladin. Take care.

Good Luck Paladin

Merry Christmas and Get Well Wishes .

frankly me and you have had our differences, that's no secret
but i've had a knee replacement, and probably looking at one to the other leg.
but i've been there, and i pray you have a complete and full recovery.
i figure 5 years from now they'll start on my hips.i'm not looking forward to it.
it is amazing how quick they have you up walking isn't it.
i mean it seems like just after the goof juice wore off , i was walkin down the hall.
it's incredible what the human body can endure.
anyhoo, i'm glad you had a successful surgery, and i'll pray for your recovery as well, god bless you.

OK, as a poor typist, I know this comment was a "typo", but what a Freudian slip!
'tucky "gladly" wishes "don't good" on all who ever choose to disagree with his views, doesn't he?

As an RN, I remember well that patients who got up and moving post-op more quickly despite some discomfort did the best and recovered sooner. Up and moving is "DO GOOD", Paladin!!!!
P.S. - wiggle your toes frequently and repeatedly while lying or sitting down. Even that small muscle movement will strengthen muscles and improve circulation/ blood flow to legs and hips.

maybe when they put a new hip in for KII they will put a new mouth in too

Now that is funny right there^^^^^^^^^^^^^

cag knows her stuff ya'll.

Well, its gone really well. They discharged me this morning from the Rehab center. I'm wALKING with no use of a cane or a walker. Other than the first four days with a walker for exercise and kept steady, I've been on my own since. They said I was an advanced patient coming out of surgery and a quick recovery in Rehab. What was scheduled for 30 days in Rehab was cutoff at 2 weeks, 2 days. I'm home now. I had no pain, ever and other than tightness in the muscle group, got stretched out quickly and into a good range of motion. What used to be a painfull arthritis hip causing a limp & discomfort is gone now. Lookinhg forward to rasing he11 again and doing the activitites I enjoy. Merry Xmas to all.

Glad to hear you are home and doing well Paladin. Have a Merry Christmas and a healthy New Year.

Congratulations Paladin, but don't raise too much He11 on here or you might get suspenkeek.
