Hi everyone
I 've posted before that I was waiting for news of my THR, and was getting frustrated because my pre-op was almost 6 wks ago. Well the good news is that I have a date at last ,Nov 19th
They have managed to get me a place at a different hospital, a private one, with a different consultant but I don't see that as a problem. Soooo excited, and not a little nervous, but it's great news

I saw my doctor yesterday for a sick note, and he advised that with all the extra spare time I had, I should write poetry or a book
He sai d he would love to have something like that dedicated to him, and I promised to gie it a go.
Thanks to you I now have the title

That is excellent news. Not too long time to wait now and enough time to make preparations.

Many thanks to everyone for replying.....it makes my day to know that people care
I must admit that I'm not usually so well prepared for Christmas, but sat here on my computer and had it all delivered....I love internet shopping
I'm free for the next three weeks if anyone wants theirs done
love Beo
going into work now to tell them the good news and hand in my sick note :shock:0 -
I am glad that you've got your date, hope it goes well and you get a new lease of life from it..
It's a real ball ache waiting for these things, hospital appointments, injections etc etc...
Like we're not suffering enough..
And a private hospital too? Not bad, you'll probably have a flat screen tv and butler service, haha

Hi Beo,
What a difference a week makes. Good luck for the 19th. You sound as if you are going to be busy with your writing.
If you have come across any good ideas for Xmas presents for men please let me know. After 34 yrs I am running out of ideas. It doesn’t help that he inconsiderately has a birthday early January. :roll:

Hi

22nd November ...then 6 weeks {thats what I had ...think speedy was longer} of restrictions. 20th of Dec you will be 4 weeks into those restrictions.....still another 2 weeks to go of ....not bending, not putting on your socks etc, or your teds,
I was walking around the house OK with no sticks then but 1 stick outside although I didnt go out much......not brilliant weather.
Just ask questions.....not sure if I can remember much more LOL
