ok guys....

heres the deal... i was just chattin wh my very good friendkarin(publixgrl)&it seems that she will be undergoing a hip replacement&could really use some good vibes&support right now&i know how good we are with this so lets show her our support ok? we are here for you karin!((((((karin)))

My elderly neighbor had hip replacement surgury and she says it was the best thing shes ever done for herself.

I work as an RN in a rehabilitation/post acute care setting. We see lots of patients after their hip and knee replacements and most feel almost immediate lessening of their arthritic pain. My father had his hip and knee replaced a year and a half ago and he is riding a bicycle for the first time in 50 years - he's 78!
