Thank you Sue. I am about to have a revision of my first hip post infection and spacer. I researched scenarios of failure thus my question. During my research I came across many people with no hip but no mention of braces or exoskeletons which I naively did not understand since they seem like viable solutions (at least worth a try). Thank you again for the great job you do.

Good luck with the revision! Mine were due to heavy metal poisoning, so I was pretty ill when they were done in 2011, and recovery was long and questionable due to tissue damage, so I understand your concern.
If, and I hope this does not happen, your revision has problems, maybe you can become our research specialist and first user of some sort of aid or brace, Though I aam hoping you have success.
Sue
