That was a great story and 89! Awesome. She is amazing!
Yes, be patient with yourself and if you can get into a pool to do your strength training and stretching, you will see a difference. I had both knees done four months apart five years ago and I absolutely advocate for water therapy. Keep it going and it will improve. Aqua aerobics was the key for me. I can walk all day now with no pain.
