my dad had a total hip replacement surgery...

Dear Carole, prayers and good healing wishes for your dad after his surgery. We hope he follows the doctors' orders and takes advantage of treatments and home help available, so he recovers comfortably and is back in action before long.

yes i believe they are doing them so much younger now, the same surgeon did my best friends sister, she has both replaced too one at my age and one at 58, only thing is you probably have to get them done in 20 yrs again, would not fancy that, but still if you have to have it done you don't get much of a choice.

Just waiting to hear if he is allowed home today, he seemed pretty confident about it, however he tends to get sick in the mornings and they won't let him home until that stops.

Yes we have home care in place,other than that, not sure what he will get, as it has to be done through his insurance,cost $21,000 dollars for a new hip.,thanks for the well wishes for my dad everyone, always appreciated, will keep ya all posted.
