Here I lay, flat on my back, awaiting the Angels in Blue who will whisk me away to yaya land. I'm at OHSU in Portland (look it up, Bo) and getting a new left hip.
I don't know how much I should oughta trust this outfit. The have apparently not paid their natural gas bill... the place is barely above freezing in here.
Anyway, I'll see you all on the other side of the surgical theater.

Lord please give the doctors and nurses steady hands and sharp eyes as they work on LHN. Amen
Be sure someone employed there marks the correct hip with a marker so that you don’t come out with a newer right hip and a bummed left hip!. That is usually the best free a/c.

I wonder what kind of crazy stuff LHN says when they have him on all the anesthesia drugs? Good luck with the new hip! The food is the only decent thing about hospitals. Always ask for extra pudding.
I broke my right hip twice in 1973. It has done very well considering it all, but if they accidentally replaced the wrong hip, it would not be the end of the world.
I'm still getting prepped but every nurse I talk to says that someone is on their way to sterilize and mark the proper hip.

Seems like we should have a follow up report by now.
are they going to put in a wooden log joint?

They let you keep your old hip?!? Is that what I'm seeing? Seeing as they're mans best friend, you really should give that to your dog.
Shifter knob!

Well I survived long enough to walk quite a bit, eat a gourmet breakfast, and leave the hospital. What a fantastic operation they have here to perform operations.

We are in Portland, slowly headed toward our friends from a motorcycle forum I frequent. Well spend at least one night there with Patrick and Rizza. They have already had lunch so we stopped at a 4.8 rated Thai restaurant.
I had to walk on uneven ground for 40 yards and Patty and I are both amazed at how quickly I am taking to the walker. Currently sitting in a moderately hard chair with much less pain of any kind than I have had for a year or three. We arrived just in time to witness a tableful of Monks, in full Monk garb, going through their prayer ritual after their lunch. The restaurant staff is participating from wherever their work station is.
We just don't get to see that back home.
Anyway, I think the hard part of the battle was over sometime yesterday.

Well look at you, I will not be surprised to see that thing on the stick of the motorhome!
Now take care of those knees, the recovery from that is usually much harder than the hip. PT, PT, PT. Then when you finish that a good massage therapist will make your day. Glad you are doing well.
Thanks to all of you. I already know this was a good thing. Now I'll probably be chomping at the bit to do the other hip.

Glad it all went well Bro. It probably wouldn’t have needed replaced if I hadn’t needed to kick your ass so many times when we were younger. But you just never learn.
Prayers for a speedy recovery!

Ron, so good to see you're recovering well. That hip ball looked like it had some hard miles on it. Speedy recovery, do the PT.
Thanks.
It ain't the years, it's the miles.

I can't like this enough! Hope your recovery goes well.
Well here it is 8 days from climbing down off the bloody slab and I am feeling great. With minimal assistance from the walker, I am striding normally for the first time in years. I think this thing is working.

Might as well take the bandage off. Let's see that thing.
I don't know what solar system that dressing came from, but it is stuck on tighter than a litter of newborn possums hanging on to momma possum.
They say I can shower and everything but I've been doing spit baths just because I feel like the longer that dressing is on there, the less chance I'll have for infection.

Glad it all worked out. Must be a great feeling, running marathons soon. Oh BTW, you have a streaker in your house!
