Testing showed a problem so now she has to go for a catherization on the 22nd. Naturally, they didn’t do hip replacement. Oh no. I hope things are going as best as possible for her.

DaniDanielle Posted December 19, 2023 #111006 Share Posted December 19, 2023 (edited) @A&L_OntI feel so badly for her. She is in so much pain, she couldn’t wait for the replacement.

Rare A&L_Ont Posted December 19, 2023 #111008 Share Posted December 19, 2023 @Sea Dog we chatted with a lady while waiting for X-rays who was in for her 1 year post surgery recovery. She had both her knees done last December. I shared your story and how you had puppy healing and she smiled. She went home to her 3 dogs after 2 weeks in hospital and was given all the love they had. She got RSV in hospital and they kept her until she had fully recovered. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Tree_skier Posted December 19, 2023 #111011 Share Posted December 19, 2023 On 12/17/2023 at 6:32 PM, HBE4 said: After spending an extremely nostalgic weekend with old college friends - the same group of friends that I reconnected with & spent a long weekend at a lake side cabin in the Adirondacks this past summer - I'm of the mind set that new memories and experiences are far more important than "more things". I also help one of my old college buddies clean out his childhood home after his aging parents moved & downsized. Lots of "things" ended up on the curbside with a "Free" sign on them or in the dumpster. I'd go with the cruise. And maybe not "just another Caribbean cruise" but something with a unique itinerary. Or upgrade to highest class suite on the ship. Or a European cruise with a European side trip added in. Or Australia. Yes, the lights are awesome but after a week, how much time are you going to spend outside looking at them? Other than a handful of holidays, how much use are they going to get Jan - Sept? Just my humble opinion. Great post @HBE4 I have more stuff than I know what to do with. I cherish the memories of family and friends. There’s no comparison. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Sea Dog Posted December 19, 2023 #111014 Share Posted December 19, 2023 58 minutes ago, A&L_Ont said: It went well. We were there by 7:10 for the 7:30 apt. The process time was between 2-5 hours, and it took us 5, with extra time at the pharmacy to pick up some items for the surgery. The process included X-rays, blood work and meeting 4 different team members of the prep team at separate times. I’m beat though. I feel asleep at 1am and the alarm went off at 5:50. Wishing your mom a successful hip surgery and recovery. I have been seeing a lot of hip replacements at my therapy. Moat people seem to so pretty well. I will be thinking of her and you. Get some rest. 30 minutes ago, A&L_Ont said: @Sea Dog we chatted with a lady while waiting for X-rays who was in for her 1 year post surgery recovery. She had both her knees done last December.

Now that I am doing better they go to the other end of the couch and lay on Linda.The fact that she has a heating blanket over her might make the difference for them abandoning me. 😉 8 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I once had a car that got flooded by an overnight rain cell. When I sent the car to be repaired he asked if it was salt water that it was in, i said just rain. I said what would salt be different.. He said they would total the car. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George C Posted December 20, 2023 #111019 Share Posted December 20, 2023 What is everyone streaming, I caught up with Reacher just 3 episodes, I did read the book which wasn’t in New York as much . Just started Fargo which I always enjoy (season 5) I like watching it on Hulu since it drops the commercials. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckynana Posted December 20, 2023 #111021 Share Posted December 20, 2023 We just came home from Ryan's Holiday Concert, which was phenomenal! So..we just pulled into the driveway, and...we've been "Flocked"! My phone doesn't take very good pictures, but we've been Flocked by several Christmas flamingos. (This was done as a fundraiser, where someone pays to "surprise" the homeowners). 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coralc Posted December 20, 2023 #111024 Share Posted December 20, 2023 @HBE4 You were talking about Leonard and what he might do when he experiences snow. I just looked at the funniest compilation of photos today with cat prints in the snow, leading out of the house and circling quickly back to the door. It is called, "The Circle of Nope". 😃 "I am not going out in the snow. " Google has it easily, but I am not going to post the link. It is kind of click baity. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
