My Day and Surgery Update

No end of excitement in the hospital. I saw both the PA and my doctor. I'll be leaving as soon as the insurance gives the okay. I have a bed in the same rehab center as last time, so that's good. Therapy was here and I got my knee to 35 degrees this morning. Two days after surgery, that's pretty good. I'm doing well with walking and getting around. I won't say it's not painful to move, it is, but it's getting better every time I do. I have a brace for my knee. I'll be wearing it for six weeks when I'm up and moving and when I sleep at home as I'm a tosser and he doesn't want me to mess up the knee. I don't want to either. Since I've been here, I've had two roommates. The hospital is so full they're doubling up on single rooms. My last roommate left around noon. She was very nice. She also had a knee replacement. My next update should be letting you know I'm leaving here and going to rehab. How is your day going? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me from the Botanical Gardens.

I have just read that you already moved to rehab, I am glad you are fine. I think it's a very good idea to keep a brace to avoid to mess up with your knee.

The brace helps a lot. I'm learning to get up with it because it's so stiff.

I am glad your surgery went well. I think you will have the same procedure as the last time you had your knee surgery. Take care.

Sounds like you are doing very well, despite the pain. The brace sounds like a good idea. Hope you can leave soon!

Thank you. The brace is a good idea with the condition of the bone when he replaced the knee. I know you read that I'm here already.
