    Glad to hear you had a lovely time and everything went smoothly, shame about your older son, but the fact you were so organised obviously made it easier. It's good that Jordan enjoyed it so much, hopefully that will set him up for the winter. Nice to have you back.

    Love Sue x

    Wow, what a "holiday!" So glad Jordan was well and the combination of the pool and using the chair helped. Tell the kids next year the parents are riding in wheelchairs and the kids are doing the pushing!!

    I have had OA since mid twenties. It affects my hips and knees. I had a THR on the left aged 30 and now have a resurface-replacement on the right - done May 2010.
