Hi all, I have to be at the hospital in six hours. I wanted to say thank you to all of you. I don't know what I would have done without you. I would have so many questions and uncertainties, but I don't because of the generous way you have all given your time and experiences to this forum. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I am enjoying a King sie Hershey chocolate bar... in honor of my old hip and my new hip! Well actually I just love chocolate and I throught this is a real reason to have chocolate, not just an excuse. LOL... love you all, talk with you on the other side, as an official hippie smile

    Cindy, sending love and light to you. I can remember leaving for hospital and all my nerves and worries disappeared. My partner remarked on how calm I was and I laughed

    "Apart from you and the family, I have about 50 people on the forum all rooting for me"

    Now go and get that new hip.

    Hopefully the operation has all been done now, take it easy, let us know your feelings and how conditions change through the next few weeks. It must be great to have it finally doen, and NOW is the time for more chocolate, keep on nibbling smile
