Hi @seanbeck. I've seen a number of your posts over the past week. Thanks so much for joining Connect and getting plugged into these discussions. We are happy to have you!

First off, I love that you set a goal for yourself. Having something to work toward certainly aids in the recovery process. I'm not a doctor, but if I had to guess, i'm thinking the water skiing might be a stretch that soon after surgery. Water skiing can be really hard on your body. But if it's something that you love, i'd tell your PT that it's an important long-term goal for you. I'm assuming you are doing the hydrotherapy with a PT? If so, have you talked to them about these goals? What do they think?

I'm tagging @nan57, @ladidy, @riverqueen1305, @martishka, @elltd and @sasaka who have had similar procedures and may be able to provide some insight.
