I WISH YOU A SPEEDY RECOVERY FROM YOUR KNEE REPLACEMENT.  MY HUSBAND HAD
BOTH KNEES REPLACED ABOUT 3 YEARS AGO.  HIS RECOVERY WAS TERRIFIC.  OF
COURSE, THERE IS A LOT OF PAIN WITH P.T., BUT IT IS TO YOUR BEST INTEREST TO
TRY AS HARD AS YOU CAN.  HE WAS VERY FAITHFULL DOING HIS PRE-SURGERY
EXERCISES WHICH I THINK HELPED HIM RECOVER SO FAST.  YOU WOULD NEVER KNOW
THAT HE HAS NEW KNEEWS.  HE CAN DO EVERYTHING, EVEN KNEEL IN HIS GARDEN.
THE ONE PLUS SIDE IS HE IS NO LONGER BOWLEGGED.  WE USE TO TEASE HIM THAT A
CAR COULD DRIVE THROUGH AND HE WOULDN'T KNOW IT.  NOW HE WISHES HE HAD DONE
IT YEARS AGO.

 

GOOD LUCK IN YOUR RECOVERY.

I am glad to hear that you are home and healing.  I hope that all is going
well.  You were and are in my thoughts.

 

Although we have never personally met or talked with each other, I welcome
your emails to the list.  You always seem to have such a positive outlook on
things no matter what is thrown at you.  You always have a kind word and
offer advice based on your experience.  Jude, you are a gem.

 

I am at home recuperating from a partial knee replacement done on March 26.
I am healing well but know this will be a slow recovery.  I was amazed at
the number of doctors and people who actually think you can fully recover
from TM.  One doctor was surprised when I told him that you never fully
recover and will always have TM.  You only recover to the best that your
body can.

 

Do take care Jude and I hope you are able to post soon!  I miss your emails!

Did she try re-subscribing  Many of us have been kicked off from yime to
time!
 
Welcome home, Jude!!!  you've been on our minds and in our hearts!!!
Hugs, janh
 
 
She can't post for some reason and asked that I send this for her:
Hello there...anybody out there?  Boy, I go into the hospital for a couple
of weeks and this is what I come home to.
 
I've heard about two sites where y'all might be hanging out,  One is Yahoo
and the other is a different type of site that I know nothing about, not
even the name.
 
Are there any new people with TM waiting around for some activity?  My name
is Jude; I am a T3 paraplegic, totally paralyzed from the nipple-line on
down to my toes.  I don't begin to say that I know everything, in fact, I
know next to nothing...just like the doctors.
 
If you have any questions or simply need someone to talk to send me an email
and we will work it out.
 
Try to keep it Positive!
Jude

Thank you for your note, Patti.

 

The recover is moving along slowly.  Part of my problem is that I have so
much scar tissue from 14 previous surgeries that it is limiting my movement
quite a bit.  I am working hard on it every day and I am sure that once the
zipper (staples) are removed, it will be much easier.

We had a great friend who had terrible knees, had to quit playing tennis and 
golf.  
Finally he decided to suck it up and have them 'fixed'his recovery was rapid
and he said he had no idea how much pain he'd been in before he had no pain!!
I say, get it fixrd so we can go on down the road!! and that's how Ive treated 
tm,
I refuse to let it keep me from living!!!

Anyone overweight tried ACAI (prononced ah-sa-ee)?

Supposed to reduce hunger, and raise energy levels.

In my case, devoutly to be wished.

Hey Jude, so glad you're out of the hospital.

Does anyone know if this stuff really works for raising energy levels and is it 
okay to take no matter what meds you are taking?
Just curious.   I can always use an energy boost and who wouldn't want to lose 
a few pounds!   Janice
