The Painful Truth

For almost 2 years, I anxiously awaited a surgeon to approve knee replacement surgery. Here is the twist. Less than 4 weeks out from surgery and tomorrow I will be calling that very same orthopedic surgeon to discuss my hip and possibly to postpone the replacement.

I fractured my right hip back in November and it hasn’t been the same since. It has actually been a larger distraction than the left knee. The pain has become intolerable and needs addressing. Horrifying to think there is a more pressing matter than fixing a broken femur and faulty knee but it is true.

If nothing else, it gives me a reason to write more every day. Honestly…What’s the point of a blog if you don’t write?

Cheers…
