Default OT surgery went good


Hi all.
Just a hello to say I made it through surgery and all is well.

I will say my Doc has got to share his way of harvesting bone from the
hip for the bond graft.
The way the orthopedic Doc's do it causes people a huge amount of
pain....and they seem not able to walk to well after the operation.
I was fine, not much pain at all there. Just a little pain from the
muscles that were cut through when getting in and out of bed...but
walking didn't hurt a bit.
I kept freaking out all the shift nurses and nurses aids by walking on
my own

absolutely, the fear of lawsuits run our lives unfortunately...
Glad you are well!
Teri
