And she is now in the recovery stage. She is so happy she had the operation. She finally has that smile back - she was suffering so, with pain from the bad hip joint - osteo arthritis too.

Anyway Dixie - it seems that the proceedure is quite routine now and that the recovery period is easy although a tad long. My neighbor was up and walking around in one week. After three weeks she is walking with a cane and happy as a clam.

Keep us posted on your hubby's progress.

Prayers coming your way.
