    Thanks so much for all the well wishes. I appreciate it alot. It makes me feel better to know that people care.

    Catsnclay: WOW!! Thanks for that story. I immediately thought I had better investigate the new doctor too. We don't know what we might be getting into these days. My doctor was getting on in age and he may not have been as careful as he had in his younger days.

    I have the new surgery February 29th. My new doc is so busy, that's the earliest they could get me in.

    I am still taking some pretty strong pain killers but I need to make them last. The good thing is that I can't really do anything so I'm certainly not causing any new pain. I just hope the thing doesn't shift much more. At this point, I can't bend it without alot of pain and I can't straighten it anymore either.

    As my daughter keeps telling me, "Keep a positive attitude, Mom".

    I'm so sorry you are going through this Terry.
    I hope the 29th comes very soon for you so the worst can be over.
    I know recovery will be long.
    I wish I could do something for you from here.
    Is there anything I can do to help you out?
    Hugs

    Terry I am so sorry to hear you are suffering so much. What a miserable ordeal for you, it can really make life in general seem so dim. I hope and pray this time you find relief from such excruciating pain.

    I'm so sorry to hear this, Terry. My dad has had many knee surgeries and I believe a total knee replacement too. I hope this surgery goes well!

    I'm so sorry you have to go through another surgery. My prayers are with you for a quick and easy recovery this time. I think I'll say an extra prayer for my spine surgeon tonight. *Knocks on wood*..I've been so lucky.

    Thanks to everyone again. I know I'm being tested with this thing and it's so hard. I have to keep thinking positive to avoid a total meltdown.

    You all are the best. What would I do without my Pet Talk family?

    Terry this is just awful. I can't imagine having to endure another surgery and then another recovery. I'm glad you don't have to wait too long though. The sooner you have it done, the sooner the feeling good can begin. ((((hugs))))
