Having Knee Surgery, . .THIS IS OLD FROM 2010


Good luck with that. I fear in the not too distant future I might have to do the same. At the moment it still amuses me that my knee sounds like a back-pedalling bicycle when I straighten my leg....

Thanks you guys
Yes my knee clicks, locks up, hurt, but I still bowl well.
They gauranteed me I would bowl a 300 game.

15 years ago Kaiser Hospital put on my right knee,. Two weeks later they came
out with a 30 year knee. They knew it was coming. I bowl in three bowling leagues now,
They told me that soon I would need a left knee replaced. I knew the pain,
I got a used stationary bike and started exercising my left 500 reps daily. Then600 reps,
800 reps, 1000 reps, 1500 reps. then I quit counting and went to 1/2 hour. and up.
The thought was that I would make my knee internally polished where the cartilage
used to be. It worked I don't have to have my left knee replaced ever.
I should have done that with my right knee. LIVE AND LEARN,
I am old and my knees have worn out from playing too much soccer and bowling. Tuesday morning I am having my right knee replaced. Hopefull I will be good as new in about 8 weeks.
My family will be taking care of my home needs after I am discharged. I am grateful for that. I know that this type of surgery is done all the time just like heart by pass are done routinelly.
The stay at the hospital in three days. I will be back posting stuff in about a week. I have only one chess game going at this time. Dinty and I will meet the two day criteria to make a move. He is working with me by posting his move as late as possible on Wednesday to allow me to get back home and make my move in time.
I wonder if Kaiser has Wi-fi and I can take my laptop with me.
Bye for now
