John, Thank you for mentoring. I appreciate your positivity, And the link you provided was really good. I’ve been researching and had found these two and their videos before.
I hope your journey with your new knee goes well. Please update us periodically. I Expect mine to go well.

Thanks @gobigorgohome! I woke up this morning with some new bruising above the knee on the inside of my thigh and started to panic a little. Called the surgeon's office and the nurse gave my what I needed to hear - it's normal, elevate, ice, elevate, ice some more after doing your exercises. My definition of elevate was not quite right...I need to get the leg above the heart and I was doing it in a chair so it was just waist high. Hey, helped me with one of my life's daily goals - learn one new thing a day!
