2nd TKR Tomorrow morning!!

Posted , 16 users are following.

Hi everyone!

Tomorrow is the day for my left TKR!

I am kinda nervous but excited to be on the road to functioning knees! I had my right knee replaced this past October and is doing good! So I will let anyone know how it went when I get home. Can't wait for all the sleepless nights that are coming my way!
