    Cool Going under the knife!

    Having total right knee replacement tomorrow at the Edw. Hines VA hospital near Chicago. Lot's of surgeries under my belt but the older I get the harder it is on my mind! LOL;-)

    I will include your safe surgery and a swift recovery in my prayers. My mom did a total replacement and is quite mobile, she wishes she had done both at the same time.

    Best of luck and a speedy recovery. A friend just had one. Two to three weeks and she was doing great. Will keep you in our prayers.

    With knee replacement the surgery is nothing. It's all a matter of the therapy afterwards that is all important and not so easy.

    Just keep with the program and you'll be fine.

    Good luck! I have known a few people that have had new knees. They seem to becoming akin to oil changes!

    Stay on top of your after surgery physio and everything will be great. My thoughts are with you.
