BuckShot Posted May 31, 2009 #10 Posted May 31, 2009 Good luck--Will pray that everything goes fine. Listen to the Doc. and the rehab people. Dad went though the same thing a couple of yrs ago and is fine. Knee replacement 3 yrs before that. 84 now and still exercises daily and also goes to a gym in the winter. Said without the excercise, would probably not feel as good. Good luck and wishing you the best. Gil
cecdoo Posted May 31, 2009 #11 Posted May 31, 2009 Wish you the best with the surgery, hope it goes well and you heal up quick:fingers-crossed-emo Craig
mini-muffin Posted May 31, 2009 #12 Posted May 31, 2009 I'm sure all will go well. We'll be thinking and praying for ya tomorrow to come through fine. Need to find out the warranty on this new hip. Ya know how many miles etc. etc. Guess this means I'll have to get to MD next year. Might have to drive up but I'll make it just to see how well your new hip's working. Margaret
Wrongway Posted May 31, 2009 #13 Posted May 31, 2009 Good luck John. Take advantage of Sharon for a while, let her spoil you! Hey, just wondering, is the new hip part in chrome?
DragonRider Posted May 31, 2009 #14 Posted May 31, 2009 Good luck, you are in our prayers..... Take good notes, my wife will be having the same thing in the near future..........she is not looking forward to it............
Ozark Posted May 31, 2009 #15 Posted May 31, 2009 Good luck John. We will lift you up in prayer. Hope all goes well.
RoadKill Posted June 1, 2009 #16 Posted June 1, 2009 You are in my prayers John. I'll miss you at MD, but looking forward to seeing you in August. Do what the Dr's say and we'll be praying for the best.

sarges46 Posted June 1, 2009 #19 Posted June 1, 2009 Great news...all the best...I have heard that many that have had this surgery feel like brand new after the healing is done!
1BigDog Posted June 1, 2009 #20 Posted June 1, 2009 Glad to hear the surgery went well. I remember him hobbling around at last years MD with that cane. My neighbor just had it done a few months ago. Shes like a new woman now, ok, but shes still ugly though.......
cecdoo Posted June 1, 2009 #21 Posted June 1, 2009 Great news, glad it went well, hope he heals up quick and relatively pain free. Craig
Sweetnothing Posted June 1, 2009 #22 Posted June 1, 2009 Thanks for letting us know how it went! Keep John off his feet for a while! We hope to see you both soon! We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers!
Eck Posted June 1, 2009 #23 Posted June 1, 2009 John, I wish you the best. Do what the rehab folks tell you to do and get back in shape. I wish your family peace of mind while you go through this. Look forward to seeing you on the road again soon
buddy Posted June 1, 2009 #24 Posted June 1, 2009 John we been praying and glad everything OK. But be careful on the medicine. They tend to make you say things that are not to be said.. Don't ask me how I know:headache: Sharon don't take it out on John if he tells you things like how he ate all your cookies and blamed the cat, or how he hid the remote control from you so he could watch his cartoons, or how he kept moving your drinking glass behind your back making you thing you are going nuts. He could not help it:starz: it was the Medicine. Did me no good Peg knows everything now:starz:well almost everything:rasberry: John Take care and get plenty of rest and do what the Doctor tells you and we will see you real soon. Sharon you get some rest too. Peg & I well see you both real soon.. God Bless....... Buddy & Snowflake
Yammer Dan Posted June 2, 2009 #25 Posted June 2, 2009 Glad to hear the surgery went well. I remember him hobbling around at last years MD with that cane. My neighbor just had it done a few months ago. Shes like a new woman now, ok, but shes still ugly though....... Yeah, didn't help John's looks any did it??? Had to see if his blood pressure was still working. With a "New Hip" he may be able to catch one of those nurses. Then he is really going to need a doctor!!! My DRUGS are kicking in!!!
