    Thanks for asking.

    I am doing just great, only use one forearm crutch when going outside now, I started driving again Saturday. I was driving Maggie nuts having her cart me everywhere.

    Still have some pain from the stretched muscles and tendons but that is to be expected. All of the pain while sitting or standing is gone and that is what we hoped for.

    They say complete recovery is anywhere from 3 to 8 months, I hope that I am on the lower end of that scale.

    I chased her and caught her last night but I forgot what to do next.

    Keep up the recovery, Bob. You picked the right time of year to get it done. Stay well.
     
  7. Bob-
    I've had a couple of knee replacements and take it from me , do what the doctor says.
    That memory thing does not have any thing to do with the surgery. I'll find myself in the bathroom and forget what I went in there for. Man, this getting old is great.
    Take care.
    Later,
    Dick

    You got a little over 4 months to fully recover. Not making it down for Lonestar Roundup is not an option.
    Glad to hear you are making progress.
    Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!!

    Sounds like a "speedy" recovery. I am glad your doing well! PS - When you catch Maggie you are supposed to sing "I'm in the mood for love" . Try it!:D
