transitions.
Our number is 781-259-8811. You are welcome to email me, as well.

Irene, if someone hasn't already mentioned it, I found that the essential piece 
of equipment was an ice cold water pumping gizmo, like this:

Circulating Cold Water Therapy Ice Machine Gen 2 by Arctic Ice Clear –with 
Universal Pad for Knee, Elbow, Shoulder, Back Pain, Swelling, Sprains, Injuries 
(Arctic Ice Clear) https://a.co/d/1yj3AyB

Keeps you from having to keep filling Ice bags that then :sweat" all over you.  
Truly a great help!

Not cheap, but maybe you can borrow one from council on aging?

Subject: [LincolnTalk] Equipment for Knee Replacement recovery

Hello Neighbors-

I'm trying to get organized for my surgery at the beginning of the new year.  
Does anyone have suggestions for hospital bed suppliers, or anything else you 
know to be useful in such cases.  I am pretty clueless at this point.  Thanks 
in advance!
Please reply to my email.
