HEY ITS SO GREAT THAT YOUR HOME . The e-mail was Phreds doing, it was a terrific thing(maybe not for the gal running to your room) . Glad to hear your healing well , it does some times take us diabetics a little longer.
We will see you in the bar soon. Mario has missed you.

Glad ur back & feeling ok
I bet the pain u feel now is nothing compaired to before. Thats how my aunt felt.

When I was reading ur replies on here, one of them reminded me of something else that happened to my aunts new knee.

Both knees were healed 100% (this was before the bone infection) & she was walking & bending her knees for the first time in years! Everyone thought all was well But it really wasn't & no one knew what was gonna happen next.

I don't remember what she was doing, but I think she was in the barn with the sheep & lambs (shes a very stubborn woman). & one of her OLD, as in 10 year old Scars from an old knee surgery ripped open. The Dr.s said they think it happened cause of the work they did on removing the old knee & putting the new one in weakened the scar from the bottom & cause the new stiches had healed so well & it must have pulled more skin from the old scar & caused it to rip open.

So if u have had other surgeries on that knee, keep an eye on that one too. Cause u could never know & I don't want anyone else in the same situation as her.

I missed the email thread, sorry about that. But I do send Good wishes your way

p.s. I have no idea how my aunt is doing now. I haven't spoken to my parents since new years, so I can't get anymore updates. & I'm not allowed to make longdistance phone calls & she lives about 2000km away in NS/Canada

Welcome back David! Sorry I didn't get to visit, my mom was an emotional wreck after dropping her "baby boy" off at the college.


I'm so glad you are home! I bet you are MUCH happier now.

Carole, Pters are the greatest! I'm in pain right now, but every day it should get less and less. I nget baround the house with a wheeled walker(that's a sight to behold!) and it's a little easier for me because my kitchen, livingroom, bathroom, and bedroom are on one floor. Carole, I think the poor lady who printed the e-mails got the idea of letting me go early! LOL LOL As I said before, being on PT is the greatest therapy a guy can get!!

Painful, but it will get a little less every day. But at least you were there in spirit as were all the PTers! Greatest group of people in the world!!

You know, that lady may even want to join PT to see what it's all about! Or tell other patients about it.

Now, take it easy and get better soon!

Randi, reading those e-mails was the greatest boost I could ever have! I'm still overwhelmed by all of the caring people here at PT! This is not just a pet forum, but a CARING forum!!

[Lillycat]

good morning david! you sound sooooo upbeat......that is wonderful and sooooo good for the healing process!!!

[lbaker]

Phred gave us the email link on your "Three More Days" thread and told us all the important info we would need to fill out the cards. Phread is a sweetheart just like you We must take care of our own you know

David, it is so good to hear that you are home already. Everything must have gone according to plan and no complications. Just think, no more worrying and anxiety about having this done. That part really has to feel good. Your physical therapy is an important part of the process and cooperating with that to the extent it is prescribed will be essential, so no flaking off! Don't hesitate to ask questions or relay your concerns, should you have any, to your doctor.

May each day find you with a little less pain and a bit more mobility. Don't get discouraged if it doesn't happen as quickly as you want it to. It will happen. In the mean time, if you want to whine and complain, have at it! We are hear to listen and sympathize.

Rachel, this is the perfect place to whine and complain!

David, you must be doing pretty well, you have been all over the board this morning!

Wasn't that a great idea Phred had about sending you cards? I was the one that sent you a Congratulations on the Baby boy. I figured it must feel like you have given birth - to a new knee!!

All of us wanted you to know that we cared and were worried about you.

If you don't have a good day, come here and tell us about it, because we will understand.
