Sounds good Ginny... Soon you'll be doing the Kruger challenge...
I'm getting more concerned about going under the knife anymore
Seems like each surgery leads to another. Haha.

Takes time but know many people after knee surgery and rehab who previously had a lot of pain and knee function problems are walking like they haven't in decades.
Hoping for the best.

Thinking of you, Puffingin. And Dr. Bob too! Lots of positive vibes coming from your friends on this board.

She is well on the way to being bionic!


And on TSA radar.. I went from "trusted traveler" to "needs full patdown and X ray- full body scan"

P.S. In answer to a couple of people who asked; the photo was taken on the Buffalo river in Arkansas. Am sure; we were there when the photo was taken.

You certainly were there, I remember you "Guiding" everyone around "Wreckin' Rock"

Hopefully I won't embarrass her, but I want to send thoughts and prayers for healing to Puffingin as she goes "Under the knife" today. I know how uplifting reading the board was when I was hospitalized in May and I know she has a lot of friends here on the board who I'm certain want to wish her well. She's a sweet lady if you ever get the chance to meet her!

Thinking of her and sending strength and healing to her and all who need it. I've watched some amazing recoveries from that surgery and hoping yours is one of those as well! Plenty of time for PT before the next paddling season!

PuffinGin: "Thanks for all the supportive words. Got home from rehab center and settled in yesterday with help from my dear sister. Lots more icing and elevation in my future between exercise/stretching/PT sessions. Sure is nice to be home. Went for a nice walk in my yard and picked a three (maybe not ripe) pears from tree that I thought would be dead by this year but set 15 fruit."


Glad to hear it Ginny!

So glad to hear you are on the mend Ginny,


Both my parents got new knees and also my MIL this past summer, they are all doing good and getting better.
I'm hoping the same for you.

Best wishes to you, Puffingin, as you continue your rehab. I have two artificial knees and a hip now, so I am familiar with the process. Not fun, but you have to make the effort. I hope it all works out really well for you.

Keep doing the things they tell you, Ginny, and it'll soon be better than it has been in a long time.

Just out of curiosity, is that the Buffalo River in Arkansas in the photo that was posted?

I was gonna ask the same thing. Sure looks like it. Great river for spring paddling when the North is still frozen...
