Hi Marge, When are the twins due to make their appearance? Congratulations on their upcoming births. I have twin granchildren who will be 12 August 4th, and it seems as if it were just yesterday when we were waiting with baited breaths. I hope your recup time is brief and easy so you can enjoy those new babies. Happy Easter, all. Charlottemarge <palybami@...> wrote:

DEAR NEW FRIENDS-

OH BOY! YOU FOLKS ARE SUCH A RELIEF TO FIND ON MY SCREEN EVERY MORNING. I SINCERELY WANT TO THANK ALL OF YOU.

AND KATHY, I WANT TO TELL YOU, ESPECIALLY, WHAT HAPPENED TODAY. I AM 17 DAYS POST-OP WITH MY LEFT KNEE. TODAY I COULD LIFT MY FOOT OFF THE BED WITH THE ROLL UNDER MY KNEES. YESTERDAY; I COULD NOT. NO ONE WAS MORE SURPRISED THAN ME!

I ALSO ACHIEVED 110* BEND IN MY KNEE. I AM STILL 5% OFF OF STRAIGHT LEG, BUT IT WAS NOT EVEN STRAIGHT BEFORE SURGERY, SO IT IS GOING TO TAKE SOME SERIOUS WORK.

I AM GOING TO CELEBRATE BY GOING SHOPPING. LOL MY DAUGHTER IS ABOUT TO GIVE BIRTH TO TWINS AND I HAVE TO GET SOME THINGS FOR THEM--RIGHT? THEY DON'T CARE IF MY KNEE HURTS OR IF MY LEG WORKS, THEY ARE COMING ANYHOW!

SO, EVERYONE, KEEP TALKING TO THE REST OF US. IT IS A GREAT COMFORT, AND A GREAT CHALLENGE TO SEE IF I CAN DO WHAT OTHERS CAN DO.

THANKS FROM MY HEART!

Hi Kathy, I know that your ordeal is now behind you, and hope that you're beginning to feel relief. Before anything new, the stress tends to build up--even if it's something that you've been looking forward to. I tend to stress out before every trip that I take despite the fact that I love to travel and always anticipate the trip. I can imagine how stressed I'll feel on the weekend before my surgery--which is in 5 more weeks!! Lots of luck for a speedy recovery.

Hi Marge, Yes, I'd say that the twins' arrival is "imminent>'' The waiting is awful, isn't it? Does she know the sex of the babies? Are they identical, or don't the doctors know yet? My twin grandkids are a medical miracle. They were born as a result of in vitro fertilization. They are now almost 12, a boy and a girl. The girl is the image of my daughter at her age, and the boy is the image of his father. Thinking of them this morning gives me back the feeliong of how much I have to celebrate instead of complaining about my boily aches. They live in LA, and I live in the East, so I don't see them as often as I'd like, but they're all coming to NY at the end of June, so I have that to look forward to. My hip replacement is scheduled for 5/17. I was feeling so rotten earlier this morning that it felt I'd never make it, but sharing feelings likes this relieves the burden. Good luck!!

Dear Pam,

How do I do it? You would be " AMAZED " !

Yes I do work full time and then some. I have had two ill parents

for the last two years, dad passed away end of April. Left now I wit

a very ill mother. In addition I attend college on Saturday

mornings. I also have college projects/homework.

So while I may not have children, I do have elder care and school,

along with my work. " We " (you and I), as well as my other members

who are studying, are not much different from each other. We have

our hands full and not much time in the day/week/month for

everything.

Personal life? it suffers greatly.

Why do I do this? A strong PASSSION that is what drives me and

COMPLETES me.

My Moderator and TEXPERTS drop in and help out also need a GREAT

round of applause. Because they too do not 'have to' do this. They

put in to this site out of love and desire to help others.

I can not speak for each of them. But I do know of personal

sacrafices made by some to be here and to help. This is one of the

three busiest times of the year: 2 weeks before each PTCB exam. We

are all exhausted. And recently this site has grown with new testing

methods and materials. So this has added to the site that must be

monitored and to get the quirks out.

Thank you for your displayed appreciation.

With my own appreciation,

Respectfully,

I was hired via RxTemp. Nost of those who got trained in my group

were let go at the end of training. I didnt care for the high

Thanks to Ravi, Velma, and Evil for their well wishes! I sooo appreciate it!

Evil, I have a wealth of information and physical materials from my year of

AVT. So I will start with that first. My therapist has also offered to make

me a video to further help me. I'm sure the new software is excellent, but

for me, at this point, not needed. Ravi, I didn't have an apple, but the

Hershey's candy bars and the delicious lamb chops more than appeased my

appetite!

LOL Velma, you supported me as much as I did you. The give and take benefited

us both. ) Jackie

[Guest guest]

Twisted.....just a thought. You say that when you see your doctor next month you are going to ask if you have flatback. From my experience, being that I too was never told about flatback and also found out all about it on this site, I went prepared with all the info and told the doctors this is what I have, and what are you going to do about it. I was then referred to the specialists. It's pretty amazing that when given the chance to pacify us and string us along, they will do that rather than admit they don't know something. But when confronted by the patient who actually may KNOW about something that they don't, I think they'll be quick to wash their hands of it.

[Guest guest]

Hi Twisted,

You say you work for Social Security...are you not a federal

employee? I am and I am pretty familiar with federal employee

rights. If so, won't you have a chance to change insurance during

the open season next fall? If so just switch to the BC/BS standard

option PPO...you will be able to see anyone in the county you wish

January 1st.

I just finished revision surgery and the expense to me he has been

under $2500 total (less travel). If you are a federal employee, they

may pressure you to work but there are a variety of leaves you are

entitled to....first, of course, being your sick leave. It is an

entitlement, you earned it...it is not something that is at the whim

of your boss.

Just take it all one step at a time...

Good luck, Cam

Hi April. I was implantrd last September. I checked in to the hospital at 9AM

and left after surgery at about 4:30 PM. This is not uncommon these days. A few

days earlier, I went for a pre-op screening though where they compiled all

necessary info, That took maybe an hour. At this point, I couldn't be happier

with my CI,

admit like a week before surgery. Oh well it all happened so fast. I

went for my evalution in Oct. and got accepted the same day. Did

hearing test and all that in Nov. and they called that evening and set

up my surgery.

Congratulation April! You are starting a wonderful journey! I was

implanted in Knoxville, TN on 08/30/05 and activated three weeks later. Had to

be at

the hospital by 6 a.m., surgery was at 8 a.m. and I was home by 4:30 p.m.

You don't need to be admitted a week early but you might need to have blood

work, etc. done ahead of time.
