My 1st knee replacement was in 2011. 3 nights in hospital recovery.

My 2nd replacement was 2013. 2 nights in hospital.

My younger brother had knee replacement 2019 as an out patient. In & out same day.

Amazing!

How old are you? if I may ask?

My hubby will be 84 in June...
In Aug. 10 2021, he had left knee replaced...in hospital over night and one day...came home, had Maryland Home Health care for his rehab...they came to our house...She was fantastic...

On Nov. 10 2021 he had his right knee replaced....again in hospital over night..healed at home and Maryland's Health care came again for his rehab...

Never ran a fever, no infection...up and walking quickly...Pain is gone..He is a Happy Camper...
has no weigh problem is a non smoker, non drinker and eats a healthy diet..

HE DOES HAVE CORNARY HEART PROBLEMS..He had a quad by pass at age 51, then he had a defibrillator implanted in 2011...he is now waiting to get a new battery put in his defibrillator . this will be his second replacement..

He is a Christian and puts his trust in our Lord.. come June we will be married for 61 years.. God is Good...we are both THANKFUL...

ok..just sharing...
