A New Day

Today my betterhalf had his last injection. His doctor said he will get the full results in about six weeks. He is already doing better. He hasn’t used his walker in three or four days. He has to use his walking stick but he can walk so much better. I’m very hopeful. We also stopped by a family doctor. My betterhalf’s family doctor is retiring and he must find another doctor. My betterhalf is feeling so much better, he’s getting his personality back. He was making cracks to the receptionist. She was smiling and asked me, Does this guy belong to you. I said yes, I was laughing too. She said, Well bless your heart, child. You have my sympathy. He can be embarrassing sometimes but I was happy to see his old humor back.

It makes me feel better. He’s been in so much pain he hasn’t felt like showing any humor.

As one who recently got his life back after years of enduring growing pain, I know how much better your betterhalf must be feeling and how much better you feel and feel for him. I hope his recovery continues apace.

@RubyHawk I have arthritis and fibro, and this past June had my right hip replaced as the arthritis had worn it down so badly.

@DWDavis I'm glad you are you are having no pain. My brother in law had a hip replacement some time ago and he said he could tell a big difference after his surgery. I'm happy for both of you.

@RubyHawk That is good news if he is becoming his own self again. I hope it continues with his knee and does not need the surgery.

He has arthritis in his knee. It was so bad he was in a wheelchair then went to a walker. He’s had a third injection in his knee and they are helping. His doctor told him they might work or might not. So it looks like the injections are helping.

Good to hear that he's enjoying himself again. I have a picture on here with a similar features in that it's sideways too. I thought it was odd since most of my pictures are oriented correctly. Are well.

@RubyHawk our cameras and phones have a set default to which way is up. Sometimes when we turn it for a better image were doing it correctly, but when it's posted and facing the wrong way we've turned the cameras or phone the wrong way also.

My pictures always are up right when I put them on but when I look later some of them are sideways. I cannot figure out why.
