OK, gang, I'm off to the hospital Monday morning...surgery is scheduled for 1:30pm. Then I will have 2 bionic knees! I should be home Thursday but it will be a couple of weeks before I'm back online and I will give a full report as soon as I can sit long enough at a time. Gotta keep circulating, y'know. Y'all take care of yourselves and each other, and speak of me kindly behind my back. lol KC |

You are in my thoughts and prayers. I'm so glad you're finally going to get relief from the constant pain you were in! |

If that ain't a mental image to keep with you, what is? A Kitty with bionic knees! What'll they think of next?
We love you, Kitty. Of course you are in our thoughts and prayers. Have an uneventful surgery and as painless a recovery as possible. Be in touch when your comfortably can.

ditto Lisa's comment.
Kitty, I must repeat a post I made several years ago maybe in Apathons I think.
Somewhere around 1998, two good friends had a knee replacement at about the same time.
Dottie who was mostly a couch potato and a very good friend of ours. After the operation, she returned to the couch. I doubt that she ever healed since she used a stick/walker til her death a few years later.
Bill, an avid golfer and I do mean avid. Within some few weeks after the operation, he was back on the course playing. I have lost touch with Bill, but I am willing to wager that he is still playing most every day.
oc...oh both of them were about the same age.... |

Thank you all for your good wishes! I'm definitely planning to stay active. I'm thinking that if I can do white-water rafting and traipse all over London and Paris before bionic knees, I may be unstoppable after!! KC |

KC, would you believe that once I put my foot in my mouth?
Out near our tree farm in WA, I found myself in the kitchen of a causal friend having been delivered there by her husband. He had just invested over an hour getting a friend and me out of a fairly bad situation in the woods some distance from their home. So, Mrs. X said that she was just recovering from her second Knee job and also that her hip replacement was working out OK. It just slipped out "Gee, you are almost a robot." Quiet - then a faked laugh. I could think of no recovery, so just stayed quiet while drinking her just made coffee.
