    Andy -
    You're in my thoughts. I hope that everything went well today, and I'm sending wishes for a speedy recovery.

    They let you use a computer in your room?
    The hospital I was in wouldn't let me use a cell phone.

    Good to hear that things went well.

    So.......lever release or knob release on the new hip? Which one is better? We expect a full in-depth review of this new equipment, Andy.

    Andy,

    Just saw this thread. Glad you are doing well. I had a knee replaced two and a half years ago, so I can feel your pain, or at least what you may feel when the meds wear off. eek7.gif

    Best wishes for your physical therapy and subsequent recovery. Do all the exercises they tell you to do, it's the only way back to where you want to be.

    Take Care,
    Ken

    Hope you have a full recovery
    Sorry to hear you needed a hip replacement, glad to hear the operation went smoothly. Here's to a smooth recovery!

    My mom had hers done a couple of years ago. She's sorry now she didn't have it done sooner.

    Love the photo of the computer in the hospital room -- way to go.

    Best from all of us, Ed, Dee and Rayna.

    Thanks!

    36hours later and I expect to be up and about again today, walking, doing laps around the floor, and doing stairs, too.

    Thanks!

    Way to go! Best wishes for a speedy recovery and when it comes to your pain meds, remember that it is easier to keep pain under control than it is to get it under control; don't be a matyr!.

    And while I'm at it, best wishes for the holidays.

    Regards,
    Cynthia

    Hey Bud,

    Just noticed this thread, so "hope it goes well, glad it went well, glad you are home and best wishes for a speedy rehab" all in one sentence.

    I was just thinking of writing a note after seeing your mug in Outdoor Photographer this month. wings.gif Very nice.

    As it happens I just had sizable order and decided to try one of the prints in metal to check it out. BayPhoto says it is in production and should be here soon. Really looking forward to seeing it.

    best,
