I think you need to use spell check. I'm almost certain you meant to type happy!
Yeah. Happy. That was his name. He had the surgery, recovered quickly and went on to play professional football. So, see, you have nothing at all to worry about.

I posted this for fun in the smilie thread and since I haven't really made it totally public that I'm having surgery, I was getting some concerned emails......so,
I need your love and prayers! This coming Thursday at 9:00 a.m. I will be having a total knee replacement. I've had a bad knee since I was 16 when I had my first torn cartilage surgery, then another one about 8 years ago. Now, it's bone on bone and after three rooster combs series of injections, there's nothing else to do except replace my worn out worthless knee.
Everyone that's every known of someone or had replacement surgery themselves have said they'd do it all over again.
I'm praying for a good, successful surgery and speedy recovery!
Praying Renda, I am sure your new knee will alleviate all your pain & discomfort.
The nursing home I work at provides excellent therapy and the beds are comfy. The food isn't too bad either. We have a female room available........
I have to be on the CMP for at least three weeks too! Sleeping with my leg in that and lying flat of my back is going to be something else. I'm a side sleeper.
Sounds like a great plan.....however, you are a few hundred miles from me!

Praying for you to have a successful surgery and speedy recovery. The folks I know who have had this said that the pt is the most important part. Good luck!

We've had residents from Florida. We aren't prejudiced....LOL!
That CMP will feel good, even if your back isn't handling you laying on it!

I haven't taken care of a TKR patient for awhile. I didn't know you had to sleep with the machine!
The protocol use to be 2 hours in the morning, 2 hours in the afternoon, and 2hours in the evening. Will you get to go straight home or to rehab?
