Well said Sue. I was told in February 2020 that I needed a hip replacement but due to Covid the surgery was considered elective and could not be scheduled at that time. Whew I said to myself as someone who could not fathom in a million years getting surgery. Three years later I felt like I had no choice. I was I think collapsing on my left side. I was told that my surgery was complicated. I research everything but did not want to know the details about the surgery which is SOnot like me. I did research my surgeon and I have to say no one came close to his credentials. My eldest daughter did lots of research and both her and her sister were very concerned. When I texted them a few hours after the surgery both of them replied “ you’re alive”. Yup. My thoughts exactly. If I hadn’t had the surgery for sure I would have ended up in a wheelchair. No way. I want to live long enough to see my grandchildren go off to college. I need seven more years before all of them go. It’s my goal!
