I was in a room today with five others all waiting to see the consultant ahead of total knee replacements. :|

I had not realised before that when we have the same condition at the same point we all do exactly the same things like rubbing our knees the same, stretching and bending our leg while sitting, struggling to get out of a chair and walk with a stagger to start off, exactly the same, it was a revelation to me. 8)

I thought we could join up as a synchronised TKR team for the next Britains Got Talent :lol:

I'm in tomorrow morning at 7 am. Can't wait :D

    Good luck, Steve.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

    Wishing you all the best for tomorrow, Steve. You have the right attitude, can't wait for the op and no doubt, can 't wait to get out post op to recuperate.

    Be good now and do as you are told :wink:

    The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.

    If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.
