Good morning, exit. You are welcome.

He's doing well , thanks. He has to go to physical therapy today.

No doubt about it. Knee replacement is far worse than hip replacement. I've had both my hips done and I was back to normal much faster.

Wow, you are the Bionic Woman!

From talking to others, I understand the physical therapy and keeping up with the exercises is critical to success.

I know you will keep him on the right path.

My uncle at 83 needed both knees to be replace. They were going to do one at a time. He said “Do them both at the same time! I have places to go!” So they did. He lived to be 92.

“Knee replacement is far worse than hip replacement. I’ve had both my hips done and I was back to normal much faster.”

That’s what a friend who had both told me. I somehow thought the hip would be worse, being bigger and moving in more directions.
