Today makes one month ago today that I had my Total Right Hip Replacement! I can't believe it's been that long already. It doesn't feel like it's been that long, it feels like it's only been two weeks to me. I'm doing great with my new right hip and the therapy is going great too. I'm still in rehab and it's been about a month since I've gotten to rehab for therapy (PT and OT). There is still no time frame for me to go home yet, I hope I get to go home this coming week, I miss my apartment. I can't wait to get my right knee done and my left hip done. Two down and two to go. As soon as I find out when I can go back home I'll try to post it so all my dear great friends can know that I passed therapy. All I know at this point I'm done with most of my therapy and just have a few more goals to go before I can go home. I can't wait to go back home.

Jason, I agree with you, it doesn't seem that it has been a month already. You are sounding good and I hope you do get out of the hospital shorty. You always do better when you in your place.

Hugs.

I am so glad you are doing so well.  Now about that escape plan, if you need a quick get a way and cant saddle your   then you may have to figure out a plan B             

 

You may have to call in the reinforcements             Round up a gang            Put on your thinking

cap          Plot with another  "inmate"                text for help                   Plead your case to

the nurses                 list all the reasons you are ready to go home           throw a temper tantrum

           Hold your breath until you get your way                  Make them think you are crazy         

      create a disguise    act like an angel                     be a star in PT                      Pray          

flirt with all of the pretty nurses                      and if all else fails, just casually walk out of the place                  

 

I know you are anxious to get home!  I cannot imagine not being home for a month.  I could not stand 3 weeks gone when I had back surgery.  Nothing is  better than your own bed.  I hope you get sprung this week!

Nancy,

Thank you, I'm glad too. I'm planning on an escape  just an case if they don't let me out and if comes to that you can  me out with plan B and so on.

I might have to do that if it comes to that. Indeed on rounding up the gang . Need to put on my thinking cap  and I might do all what you have said .

Just doing what I need to do to get out of there and go back home. I'm praying that I go home this coming week (wish me luck).

You got that right that I'm anxious in going home, I can't wait. I'm been out longer than this once before the first time around. Wow! Really? I know what's that like not being home that long, I hope all went well for you when you had your back surgery. True that about the bed. I hope so too, thank you.

Have a great day.
