hello fellow sleevers
had my right knee relacement last month 4/26/12 - I'm sure many others have gone through this surgery too. I had my left knee replacement about 5 years ago, i hoped i would be more prepared for the second surgery, i was right. more prepared for the pain etc.
was able to walk with the walker quickly after surgery, but in such pain - taking it ever so slowly, not to rush - slow and steady etc. etc etc.
i have to work with PT big time on strengthening the leg, will take a while - but everything worth having, is worth waiting for, did i say that right?
finally made it home from rehab yesterday. how wonderful is that? taking a shower at home and being able to sleep in my own bed. Ahhhhh
it will take awhile to heal, but i'll recover and things will be better - similar to the initial pain of our WLS - its all worth it.
since i don't have a smart phone, I couldn't keep up with the "news" from all you guys onboard - so i mssed each and everyone of you
nice to see your smilin' faces
