I don't think there's anyone around here who doesn't know Renee. She's always one of the first to welcome the new posters, always has a kind word, and is always there for everyone else. Now she's having some real problems shaking a virus she's caught and is feeling down. But she's one of the greatest things about this forum, so I thought we could cheer her up!

?When I first came here I knew I was having a THR and there was no choice in it. I was totally fine about it. Until I read the posts on this site! Then I was "OMG, what am I getting into, this operation seems to leave everyone feeling awful!" Renee was the one who told me that this was a minority of cases, and not to worry. Yes things could go wrong, but they didn't often. She made me feel much better about it. AND she made me feel part of the group and encouraged me to get involved.

?Renee is one of the backbones of this site - always there, always cheerful, always caring. Anyone else got a story about Renee to cheer her up???

    Renee, it's me darling. I'm still about and still keeping my eye on you and still doing daft things. You have helped me through good and bad with my hip and also when Alan got poorly.

    We're routing for you my friend, sending hugs and sooooo much love from both of us here in Norfolk. Get well soon my lovely Renne, we miss you. Love Gill and Alan xxxx

    I am so sorry to hear that Renee is not feeling good.  I cannot thank her enough for the support she gave me on this forum as a terrified newbie and all of her subsequent posts of encouragement.

    Lots of healing hugs to you Renee - I hope to see you posting on this forum soon,
