Hi @zita199 - I'm sending a link with an encouraging story about a gentleman who put off hip replacement and ultimately had one at Mayo. https://sharing.mayoclinic.org/2019/03/25/goodbye-to-pain-after-long-delayed-hip-surgery/
If you want her to actually talk to people about the process, you might consider calling your local Council on Aging to see if any of their members might be willing to share their stories. As an alternative, could you get her to read this story? And you might also get clips on You Tube that could make the procedure less intimidating. Is she reasonably tech-savvy?
