I was wondering about you the other day. I am 6 weeks post op on my right hip. I walked today 1 mile. I returned to work last week. I did my own therapy, to keep down my cost. I feel like a new woman! I had my left hip done 3 years ago, so now I have a matched set! I am also now the same height on both sides. The left side had left me 3/4 of an inch taller. Like I said I feel so much better! Prayers for you a speedy recovery!

Hello everyone
I hear we are in for some rain.
I have been busy. Working and trying to fit in workouts or tennis. It's not always easy.
Lisa- I am having a laid back weekend. I am going to the movies and seeing Lucy and doing some baking....but other than that I have no set plans. I want to have a lazy day. That sounds nice to me.
Sharon and Nancy....get your booties on here!!! I know it can get hectic but you have to try. I know I have to make a point now to get on here or it won't happen.
Welcome to the newcomers. I hope they post...it would be nice to hear from newbies.
Well got to go. Have a nice day all.
Good Morning Illinois!
We will be leaving tomorrow morning for Niagara Falls, with a weekend stop at Put in Bay, Ohio.I am so looking forward to seeing it. Then Sunday, joining up with the kids in New York. Hopefully, we will be able to leave early in the morning (by 6 or so).
Welcome to Jessica and Gina. We are glad you found us.
Connie, get that mamma going. I do mine as a birthday gift to me each year. I tend to do all my yearly medical exams in April also. Not sure why. Just wondering, I am sure there is a name for it, but if I know I need to do something, I tend to do it now. I don't want to put it off. Bills, errands, ect.
I love my new best friend ( hearing aid). I didn't know how much I was missing! Last night we went to the country club to eat, I could hear people talking 6 tables away!
Crystal, what are your plans for the weekend?
Sharon, where are you? Nancy, you too?
Dawn, when does Liv leave?
Hugs,
Lisa 
Gina and Jessica,
Welcome to you both.
Jessica, you are just starting an amazing journey. The Kane Center is great. Everyone there is so helpful. Have you decided on your surgury? We are all here to support you and offer all the advice you need.
Gina, Two weeks! the time and weight will fly. All of a sudden you will have clothes that are way to big, You will look in the mirror and wonder who is looking back at you. And, some of your friends won't reconize you. You are on another amazing journey.
Both of you, please come into our daily roll call. We try to post everyday, but once in a while, time slips away.
Huggers,
Lisa

Hello everyone.... this is one of my first posts on the IL board! I see most everyone is post op.... anyone pre- surgical?
All my appts are done just waiting to hear from BCBS... oh the joys! Only frustrating snafu is the pulmonary visit. She is putting me on a CPAP machine, I had to go in and get a pulse ox today... Man is it a pain in the butt...LOL
Hope everyone has a good day!
