Einstein is doing great and all is well here on the farm, but my hip has been hurting, come to find out the bad knee is throwing the hip off, so they say I need a knee replacement or I'll loose the knee & the hip.
They also say the hip is a less painful surg...***SIGH!!**

Hope everyone is doing great !
Happy Fall, Y'all!

Well, as far as I can tell, knee replacements are a bear and a half....although I just met a woman a bit older than I am, that just last year had both done at the same time, and last week she was going to hike the Olympic Natl' Forest !

I didn't want it and found I can go maybe 10 or 12 years if I do no more damage to them

Mom's had both knees done. She's in much less pain now. Was 15 years or so between the different replacements. Her left leg was almost stuck permanently straight before that replacement.

See mine are borderline with all the falls over the years breaking down a quad on each acl on one motorcycle on the same one

I had a total left shoulder replacement two years ago had me in almost tears a few times had to take the rehab very seriously. I didn’t think I was ever going to be able to make it work right but after about 3 months I was in good shape. I have heard that knees are not as bad but that’s hard for me to believe.
