I am very happy for your Dad and I wish him fast recovery. I am also happy for him that he has a caring son in you. God Bless you and your family!Thank you all so very much! :thankyou:
The replacement went well, just as it did last time. Surgery lasted 3½ hours. Three and a half hours after he left the operating room, Dad was already taking a few steps forwards and backwards under the supervision of his physical therapist. Yesterday he walked 100 steps in the morning and the same amount again in the afternoon. In general, he’s in good spirits. So far, so good!
Dad’s still on self-administered morphine but may come off it today. I’m a little concerned about that because despite being able to have morphine whenever he wants he can still feel some pain, so I’m not sure what he’ll be like once the morphine is gone. At least he isn’t totally exhausted this time like he was in the days immediately following the first knee replacement.
My deepest gratitude, once again, for all your thoughts and prayers. May God bless each and every one of you! :yup:
