Just make sure when you’re signing all the forms you definitely get the one that says nothing I say during recovery is admissible in court! Don’t ask me how I know about that one…

Praying ? for a straightforward surgery and a speedy recovery! You’ll be dancing a jig in no time!

They will be sawing my hip joint out first thing tomorrow and hopefully installing a new steel version in its place.

The joint they showed me was a chrome looking gadget and I did inquire to see if they had the sport blackout version, but the surgeon said no, just the chrome look, so it isn't going to match the truck, bummer...

I had a first cousin who never came home from his knee replacement surgery (my sister actually found him dead in his recovery room, suboptimal). So if blood clots after joint replacement run in the family and I don't make it, I just wanted to make sure anyone I might have slighted along the way here knows, it was me not you. :)

Cheers, see you all next week sometime.

Prayers for your safe procedure.

Good luck Bill. I had to have surgery once and the doc told me to take low -dose aspirin in the days leading up to the surgery to prevent blood clots. If not taking it I'd call the doc to check with first obviously and maybe jump on it depending on what he says. Mine was pretty adamant about it.

Been there and recovered. It is well worth the time under the knife. Hope you did you pre-hab exercises, they are easily as important as post operation exercise. You got this ?

I think I'm going to start a petition thread.

You need a title under your name Tracy, like the mods and admins.


I'm thinking "Den Mother" would be appropriate.
Because we're all a bunch of animals! ;)

Wishing you a quick recovery Bill. Will you be having this done at St Luke's or St Alphonsus?
Too bad they didn't offer the blackout version.

Oh, Don't worry about your Ranger, I can come by and take good care of it. I'll outfit it with all sorts of custom dampers you won't even recognize it. o_O
Sure you'll come up and take care of his Ranger. I see how you are.:rolleyes:

Wishing you the Best.

I need both shoulders - lower back - left hip - left knee repaired. Verified before I retired. Now that I'm on Medicare A-D, I'm no longer qualified for any surgery due to my advanced 'decline' (congestive heart failure, high bio mass, etc).

Living one day at a time and happy. I use a walker or cane when necessary - mostly manage without either for the moment.

Get lots of looks when I grab onto things to keep from toppling - feel like a stumble drunk bum on the Jackie Gleason Show!

I still miss my motorcycles.....2015 Triumph Trophy SE (my final bike).

Good luck...not a fun trip....I had that done when I was 37...beat up my left hip doing stupid things....that wore out 5 years later and had to do a revision....I'm 64 now and hope that was my last replacement...BTW, my doctor explained to me that while the patient is out and hip is cut off, they place your leg up like you're doing a vertical split so they can hammer that bionic joint into your hip...imagine that... o_O ?
