Happy Thoughts For My Mom Today

[Anikaca77]

Hi All-

My mom is at the hospital now, and in 1 hour she will go under for a total knee replacement on her right knee.

Please think happy thoughts for her please that everything will go well. My sister and dad are with her and I'm here 3 hours away but I took her out last night for some Cold Stone Ice Cream...oh that was yummy!

Also, if you could think happy thoughts for my one girl cat who is at the vets..that would be wonderful! I posted about Nina in the cat general section.

My mom will have to have her left knee replaced after her right one is healed.

Thanks!

Ooooo! I just think that knee replacement has to hurt like the dickens... Good luck and happy thoughts for your Mom!

I had a suggestion for you about the kitty, check it out... It could be way off or already tried but it could also be something the vet hasn't thought of...

I'm sending good thoughts for your mom, Melissa and hope it goes well!

Prayers for your mom!

I am facing double knee replacements in a few years, my surgeon has told me. I do know it is important to do all the physical therapy afterwards.

My mom made it through surgery !

She will be in recovery for about 2 hours they said.

Hopefully things go well from here.

Happy thoughts for a careful and good recovery for you mom. Of everyone I know who has had knee replacement has wished they had even done it sooner, except for one friend, and I believe there's a medical malpractice suit in the works in his case, as the doctor just screwed up, and it took months until he finally went to see a different doctor to discover it!

I'm glad to hear it. How long will she be there for? Are you going to visit, or is it too far away? Perhaps you can ring her.

Well I just called them to check up on my mom and they said she is still in recovery.....I'm semi-shocked by that but hopefully things are going ok.

I know she gets sick sometimes from the anestia but hopefully that's not the case. I'm going to see her on Friday, I was scheduled off today but my dad and sister were going so I thought it would be best if I worked especially with Nina I wanted to be here. She is about 3 hours from me now. My mom and I are pretty close. I will be calling her later tonight as well as calling the rest of the family to let them know how she is doing and all that good stuff.

I realized Randi that I think you were asking me how long she will be in the hospital for? That we are unsure of at the moment, the doctor told us about 3 days she will be in the hospital and then 1 week in rehab. Hopefully there are no complications and she will be out in 3 days and then to rehab.

Hope your mom recovers quickly and easily. My dad just had both of his knees replaced at the same time a few months back(before he was hit by the car), and he did extremely well. It took a lot of therapy hours, but it paid off in the end!

It's different for everyone, but I hope your mom does really well!!

for your Mom and for your kitty also.....thinking of you too!

I guess your mom is out of recovery and loving the morphine drip by now. I hope she didn't get ill from the anesthsia (I hate that word I can never spell it )

I'm due for 2 lovely hip replacements. I have a few friends who've had knee replacements. They say it's a rough battle, worse than the hips, BUT if you do everything the therapists say, obey all the rules, grit your teeth, you'll be skateboarding before ya know it.

I hope your mom has a quick and easy recovery!!! I don't think moms should be allowed to get sick!
