Well after being picked up from the hospital this afternoon, Sis, DH and I stepped into Giovanni's for some fried calamari and veal parmigiana. I am home now. I can't walk a step without the walker but that's only temporary. The hospital gave us a walker but Sis brought me a "Cadillac" of walkers with storage, seating, wheels and brakes. Love it. There are certain movements that before the surgery caused pain (like hoisting myself into our Highlander). Today after I "hoisted", I felt a little sore. Hard to explain but the pain has been replaced with soreness. I believe I already feel a huge improvement. On the other hand, it may just be my current "drug-addled imagination". LOL. I am scheduled to take Tramadol every 6 hours, Gabapentin 4 times a day, and Oxycodone as needed to alleviate severe acute pain. So needless to say, I am in LaLa land. (That's my defense and I'm sticking to it).

Thank you again Sweet Nothings for your kind thoughts and prayers. Talk to you tomorrow. For me, it's now time to hit the hay.

NOTHING but delighted to hear of your progress and that you are now back in the comfort of your own home. Can't help but pray not only for healing of that hip of yours but also for the relationship between you and your sister. I know a little about that. My sister and I have had what sounds like a similar relationship as yours over the years. It has only been in the last 2 years that our relationship completely changed and now when we get together it is so different. I'm so glad that even though it took this long that we are finally able to live our latter years as best friends. Sometimes not so pleasant circumstances can bring you closer to one another.

Thanks again, BK, for sharing your story with us and thereby giving us the privilege to walk through it with you and pray for you along the way.

We just swam down to the Fin and blew the kids minds. They loved it. There is a good possibility that they will be buying a house in one of The Villages Family Neighborhoods cause we like to follow most of the rules. Things are looking up all over. Good Night Yous I Hope.

This is NOTHING but exciting news, Nucky! Is this the son with the adorable little girl that's just like her grandpop or is that the other son's daughter?

Good morning all and Thank you Abby,

I slept well but I'm very, very sore this morning. DH filled up the ice pack and I took all the drugs. A Physical Therapist should be here at 10 am and then followed by nothing but a nurse or CNA. (Don't worry Tal - I'll let you know if she is blonde, likes movies and is available. LOL).

I have to admit I am amazed at this whole process and I am feeling extremely optimistic that I will have very good results from it. (Fingers crossed and God willing).

Until then, I will be taking it easy and following all the instructions for exercise and whatever they recommend to aid in my recovery.

Oh, interesting factoid -- my surgeon was Joseph Locker, The Orthopedic Institute in Ocala. The day after surgery I had one-on-one PT and then group PT later in the day. In group, I learned that Dr Locker did 5 Hips and 3 Knees just that day! Holy Moly that sounds like a lot of new parts. Since I don't remember any discussion or measurements for the parts -- I asked "how do you know what size prosthetic hip or knee one needs?" Turns out there is a representative from the parts manufacturer in the operating room and they work hand in hand with the surgeon to determine the correct size. I found it all quite fascinating.

5 Minute Quickie Lube anyone?

Even when in pain you have NOTHING but a great attitude and a great sense of humor. Like I said before, you're quite an inspiration. Hope your day gets NOTHING but better.

That is very interesting. When I had my gallbladder out my surgeon told me he does 1500 a year! Yikes TV seems like NOTHING but a gold mine of old and replacement parts.

Someday (soon?) you won't have to go to work anymore and you can get out of your NOTHING room whenever you want also.

Nothing but great news!

In no time, you'll be up and ready to be groped...at every airport security line.

The biggest downside of having a bionic hip...according to my wife.

Good Morning BK A.K.A. = Bionic Woman. Setter Offerer Of The Metal Detector at The Airport.

We had a Dad of one of the Children in Mrs. Nuckies Day Care who had that job of being on call for all sorts of replacement parts. He said the pay was great but very stressful as he was pulled in several directions at once. I told him that if he snapped apart at least he had the parts to put himself together again. Nice Man but always stressed out but a great Dad with his Little Brat. I mean Child.

The good news is there is so much redundancy that no mistakes ever happen. That's what he told me.

I always say it's amazing what men (Meaning Men & Women) can do.
Thank God for their dedication and knowledge.

I'm sure they told you about pain management. You have to stay ahead of the pain cause once the stuff they injected into the spot they were working on wears off it starts to hurt. You know we're rooting for you a whole lot. You'll be Horseback Riding and Skydiving before you know it. Hang in there BK.
