Don Surgery is over

[poki]

wow that looks pretty clean, kind of looks like a fret board :mellow:, i would have thought there'd be more swelling. good to see the Dr did a nice job. 

my friends wife's 1st husband had the same surgery except the Dr. operated on the wrong knee!!!  to make matters worse, after they re-did the correct knee they botched both operations and he had to be discharged from the military for being unfit for duty.

I simply couldn't look at the picture more than half a second. OUCH!

Best wishes for a quick recovery.

If I know Don, he'll soon be posting pictures of good looking nurses helping him walk around the room.  ^_^

That IS good news!! I pray you're back to normal (which, on this board, is a nebulous thing) soon, and can get good rest in the meantime!

Glad your home Don!  Sounds like you had a good doctor so I doubt you will have any problems. 

Thanks for sharing that lovely picture of the 'bone hacking' job.  It's really amazing how quickly people get up and around after these procedures.  My father in Law was up and about very quickly and he is over 70!  He had the right knee done.  Another friend of mine had his knee done and then his hip.  The knee got some infection in it but they got right on it and all turned out fine but he did have second surgery to remove some infected material.  He is also up and about walking with no pain anymore.

Thinking of you,
Steve  :GRN>
