Arthritis is a curious pain in the lifestyle. I'm 54 y.o. and had my left hip replaced over three years ago. I was quite young for this surgery, but couldn't believe how arthritis robs you of your life. I was excited to get the surgery and rehab done, so I could enjoy life again! This blog is more than my story of hip replacement and recovery, it's about sharing health and wellness tips with others. I hope this adds health to your journey.

Hip, Hip Hooray! One Year Ago Today...
Yep! it's been one year today, March 10 that my left hip was replaced! Anyone who has followed my blog knows what the past year has been like so no need to rehash! But in a word, it has been fabulous...in a sentence, it has been the best decision I have ever made. I am so busy, being my old/new self that I've hardly had time to blog. Work and professional endeavors are in full swing, and spring is imminent. Back over a month now from our glorious trip to Ecuador and planning next year's mission to India, yes India (departing January 26th, 2011). But closer to my radar is my nursing conference in May to Seattle, then off to an Alaskan cruise at the conference close. It's great to back into life again, feeling great. If anyone out there has joint pain that's robbing them of their quality of life know that you do not have to suffer--rethink joint replacement and start living again! To my friends Linda E. and Chuck B. (both received new hips in the past three months)--drop me a blog and let me know how you are doing!
