Re: "I am getting stronger. My right knee is still throbbing with a very heavily padded wrap from above the knee clear down to the foot on my right leg.. I would dearly love to get a shower but miz micro must find some clinging type of water repeeling wrap..."Glad to hear that you are up. You sound remarkably mobile!!!

As for your shower, I am sure that there is no one more interested in your having one than miz micro. If she's stopping you from taking one, there must be a good reason.

Did I ever share my hospital shower story? Maybe, but here it is again.

On my 3rd day, a doctor pulled several tubes out of my chest and stomach and said "There! All closed up! Now you can have a shower if you'd like." The idea was very much to my liking, so when I had the chance, I found one of the CNAs (the nursing assistants who do all the real work) and asked if she had any shampoo. "Sure!" she said, and grabbed some off of a nearby rack. "When would you like us to give the shower to you?"

LOL. I hastened to tell her that I was getting along very well and would just take the shower BY MYSELF. "I'm sorry, but no," she replied. "We'll have to do it."

Long story short, I had my first shower on December 24th... AT HOME.

I am up and discovering that when you have al ot of internal tissues being repaired by cuting, pulling, nipping, re-arranging, I would rather have just broken a bone... Some of you know exactly what I am talking aout...
I am getting stronger. My right knee is still throbbing with a very heavily padded wrap from above the knee clear down to the foot on my right leg..

I would dearly love to get a shower but miz micro must find some clinging type of water repeeling wrap we can cover up the knee and leg with that water will not get wet from a shower head.

I am grateful for my doctor who prescribed the heavier duty pain meds. Lesser stuf would not have phased this. As of now, it is manageable.

I am trying to put a litle weight on the knee when using my crutches so the process of usage can begin...

I see Doc tomorrow morning at 9:30 a.m. for post op visit and inspection.. I trust him completely as this is our fourth surgery together... He is extremely good.

I am fine. Just in pain. But that is to be expected.
I am not very mobile either and let's face it, that joint does not want to move witghout rebelling...

I made it to my office this morning and am sitting in my ergonomic leather chairwith low lumbar supprt. Comfy.

Getting up and out will be interesting.

Thank You for your prayers. Ask God to strengthen this knee and give me full strength once again it..

That has been my request.... HE is ABLE..

Can't tell you how good it is to read the board and laugh.. I think De and Ribs can attest to the distraction from their serious operations... It's always good to laugh..

I am glad I did not have drink or food in my mouth when flipping thru the Texas/Georgia dispute ! loL!!! No telling what you are going to find from our two resident comics!

I need to get up and go pack this knee in ice again to help with the swelling. Hopefuly miz micro will return soon. I am beginning to smell like a barnyard on a hot summer day... Not a good thing...

Lord willing, I'll see you all again a little later today.. Therapy starts this week and I am NOT looking forward to moving this joint... It was ugly last time back in 1997 and feels uglier this time... It could just be I am a litle older also... lol!!

See you all later. Time to try to get opuit of this chair and hobble out to the Den on the far end of the house...

Have a wonderful day you all! Thanks for the laughter!

micro...
