[quote="Kittencal"]Dee that's wonderful news, how is Robbie doing is the pain getting better?[/quot
He hasn't even mentioned pain Kitten. He's doing amazing! He's home and walking with a walker.
His physical therapist told him he wouldn't be surprised if he can switch to a cane in a couple of weeks.

No, the therapy is what's moving him ahead Kitten. He works at it daily, and you're right though, every day it gets better.Kittencal wrote:Deely wrote:Kittencal wrote:Dee that's wonderful news, how is Robbie doing is the pain getting better?[/quot

It is amazing what strives they have made in surgery. Sounds like he has done really well and is willing to do the work for a quick recovery. Being in good health really helps too for a quick recovery as well as a good state of mind too.
Re: Total Hip Replacement Surgery Tomorrow
OMG Kc, We didn't know what to expect...he had surgery on Tuesday, they had him walking the floor Wednesday and he was discharged on Friday! You're right on being in good health, not too much over weight and so determined to be back up and moving. His home health physical therapist told him that the patient he saw before him was in the hospital 13 days (same age as Robby)!Kchurchill5 wrote:It is amazing what strives they have made in surgery.

Re: Total Hip Replacement Surgery Tomorrow
MY grandfather late in life had knee replacement; he did fantastic. Attitude. At 80+ he was up and walking in no time and way ahead of schedule. Again, health, weight, activity, and attitude.
Great to hear that. Good news. He will be running marathons soon ... well maybe to the end of the driveway and back
Good to hear!!
