good to hear. a family friend had her hip replace several years back. I asked if it hurt, and she said not really. She said that the years of the pain prior to the surgery was way worse then the replacement. she was back at it pretty quick.
good luck.

That's good news drop. You'll be up and running before you know it.
I had lower back surgery several years ago and they did the same thing to me. I thought they were kidding when they wanted to get me up walking so quickly, but they know what they are doing. It's amazing how far modern medicine has advanced.
You'll be feeling better and stronger with each passing day now.

Pretty rough night. Slept in 10 minute intervals. Pain is bearable. I pushed myself each time I had to pee. Got up and used the walker. Nurses say I am doing awsome. Pain is pretty tough getting in and out of bed. Top of my thigh and butt cheek are painful even to the touch. BUT....its day 2! Drop

Just think of yourself as a "ultimate" muzzleloader and Jeff is the doctor doing the conversion..... You just know it's going to be awesome when he gets it done. LOL.... I hope you heal quickly. And am glad the surgery went well.
