Hello all, I am nervously awaiting my knee surgery to take place sometime this Wednesday. I would really appreciate lots of prayers if anyone wouldn't mind. I am starting to get anxious for it to be over. I have had to be off my Celebrex which is an anti-inflammatory drug for my arthritis since last Thursday and I am in alot of pain. Tomorrow is my last day of work, thank goodness, since it hurts so bad to walk very much. Thanks in advance, I know everything will be alright, Lord willing.!!

Hi Debby,

I will say a prayer for you...see yourself healing quickly and being out of pain...start the healing before the operation...

Debby, you are in my prayers - you will be fine. I also have arthritis in my knees and I know how painful it can be.You will feel so much better once it is over. Will be thinking of you.

Hi everyone, first of all Happy Mothers Day to all. I had a partial knee replacement last Wednesday and came home Friday. I can't sit at the computer for long with my knee bent so far..LOL. PT will be starting this week. I am mostly concentrating on controlling the pain, and keeping cool, darn it is soooooooo hot out today.Docs said surgery went great and the rest is up to me. I will enjoy being off of work, but HATE with a passion being dependent on ANYONE to do stuff for me....SO I will sign off and thank everyone for the kind wishes and prayers...:bg: :bg:

Hi Debby, Glad your surgery went well. Try hard to enjoy the help you need right now, bet you have taken care of lots of people, your turn now. Try to stay cool too. You'll be back to work sooner than you think. Theresa

Hi Diane, thanks for asking, I am getting around ok with crutches. I haven't been able to drive, so occasionally I get a bit grouchy. I have Physical therapy coming to the house, and she works my knee, but good. I am not too good in the patience or depending on others to do stuff departments, but I am coping....Thanks again for asking.:bg: :bg:

you sound like me - very independent and don't like having to rely on other people! Glad you are getting on o.k. Take care.
