The best thing I ever did for my knees was to get a lift chair.

I ain’t old enough for one of them. They are for the truly elderly.

If I had known how wonderful they are, I would have gotten one way back when I was in my 50s. The only bad thing is how long it takes get out of one. If I was designing one, I would give it a high gear for when the doorbell rings.

Seriously, there are days they would help, but all of them are so slow I would pee my pants before I got out to run to the bathroom.

The object is to take care of business before sitting down. In a worst case scenario, I roll off the side of the chair.

I have 2 that were My mom's. Slow is an understatement. I am way too impatient. I keep them in case I get to the point I need them....by then they probably won't work... they haven't been used since 2008

Morning. I have Jerry knee issue today. Otherwise a pretty day.

Still sore but I ran the dishwasher and a load of laundry . First since surgery . Anyone thinking of this surgery be warned the tourniquet pain is worse than the surgery . They did not say much about that ahead . Just some soreness and bruising . I say major soreness and some bruising .
