@ellerbracke - LOL. I thought you said "become a part-time warrior." (OK. Maybe I need new glasses) But I was inspired! I thought. OK. I could do that too. When I re-read it, I liked "part-time worrier" even better. That will be my goal too! You have provided double inspiration for me today!

I know for certainty I am a worrier....it is one of my special gifts LOL......but hey, part time warrior sounds good....I am going to work on that one!! New goal for me!!

@debbraw I totally agree. Preparing for a TKR is extremely helpful. I am sure I have mentioned that my original TKR was scheduled for February, 2014 but my platelet count was too low to have it done. That was prior to my cirrhosis diagnosis. I was finally able to get the knee done in October 2017, a year after my liver transplant. That gave me plenty of time to prepare by exercising, primarily my recumbent bike and water jogging, both of which were highly recommended by my orthopedic surgeon,
