hubby is finally getting his knee operation

[mel35]

He has been on the public hospital waiting list since Nov 2003, for a knee operation to cut out torn cartledge. We got a letter from the hospital about 3 weeks ago telling us that the op wouldn't be until Feb next year. Then we just got a phone call out of the blue yesterday saying it would be done this Monday.
YIPPPPEEEEE

I hope it all goes well.

I have had two knee operations so I can sympathise with what he will be going through. I pray for a speedy recovery.

[mel35]

Hi Mel,

That's great news! My hubby has had 3 operations on the one knee, so I've seen how painful and uncomfortable it it. All the best, and a speedy recovery!

Yup, get the nurses uniform ready LOL


Semele, how is your knee/s now?

[Leigh]

Hope everything went well today Mel :)

[Patricia]

Yes me too Mel, hope all is ok although I know what bad patients men can make :P

[mel35]

Hubby had his op today and all went fine for him, they cut out the torn cartledge and doc says he should make a full recovery. :)

Thank you to everyone for your good wishes :hug:

Now if you'd like to know how my day went check out my post " My Stressful Day"
Its very long but you should get a good laugh out of it. LMAO

Mel

[Pam]

Re Nurses uniform ..Chicken LMAO

[mel35]

I'm a bit too tired to perform the "nurse" routine LMAO

And yes Pam I am a chicken lol

[mel35]

Hubby is a bit sore and sorry this morning (I think those happy drugs have worn off). He just got a phone call from one of his good mates who hurt his leg at soccer on Sunday and he is on crutches for the week too.

[mel35]

Hubby took the bandages off today and is getting around quite well on his leg- seems to be healing well.

So I took the oppertunity today to spend most of the day in bed after my week of running around after him and the kids all being sick I think I deserved it .LOL

[Monty]

Good for you Mel!! And glad to hear hubby is doing ok. Are the kids getting over this virus bug thing now?

[mel35]

Hubby's knee is really good now he can even run on it ( something he hasn't been able to do for a couple of years now lol). he is back to playing indoor cricket ( he shouldn't be playing coz of his back- but thats a whole other story LOL).

And our household has been vomit free for a week tomorrow so hopefully the bug has gone now- and I have almost caught up on the huge amount of washing it caused LMAO

[Leigh]

Wow, what a speedy recovery! Great for you though not to have him moaning and complaining around the house for weeks LOL

Glad to hear everything is back to normal at your place :) (only a few more days!!! :D)
