Very Good News to hear. Praying for a full recovery
Brenda's Knee Surgery
-

I am wishing Brenda a speedy and uncomplicated recovery. Prayers your way.

Yes that is and if the recovery goes good, there will be quite a few more miles put on the SlingShot this coming summer.
Wishing Brenda the BEST but that means I'm going to have to ride a lot this winter in the 'cold frozen Northern Indiana' jus t to stay ahead of you....

Everything is still good with Brenda and the doctor said that it would probably be Mon. before she could get out of hospital.

Great to hear! Relax and take the time that's needed...

Brenda went into surgery at 1/30 PM today and moved to the recovery at 5 PM. Everything went perfect and she had no problems this time. At this time she has a knee and about 40% mobility with the possibility of getting to about 60%. We will be keeping the leg stationary for at least 3 weeks to allow for the healing of the surgery, hopefully not having one of the problems she had last time. Everything looked good and they took cultures again to check for the infections that she had after the Dec. 15,2016 surgery. Actually she did better with this surgery than she had with any of the other 5. She is doing good and will probably get out of the hospital Sun. or Mon.
This is great news Hun... Wish Brenda our best and if you need anything, we live close enough to swing by and help out where we can!

glad to hear something went right for her sounds like she should be ready for Maggie Valley

Brenda is still in the hospital and received two units of blood today. She may get out tomorrow, we just have to wait and see.
-
Sending an to watch over both of you...and a few prayers.

Praying only a temporary setback.

She came home Tuesday, besides a good bit of pain she is doing good. The therapist is supposed to come to the house tomorrow. She has had a wound vac on every since the surgery this time.

Those wound vacs can be super helpful! Has the PT started?

They pulled out all of the stitches except the four that were in her old skin graft on Dec. 11. She started physical therapy on the Dec. 19 and she still has the 30% range of motion with the knee and they are expecting that to go to 60%. On Dec. 26 they will remove the last 4 stitches. She still has the pain but can put some weight on the leg and knee.
