I really didn't think it would be =(

 

[SnowyJingleBells]

You guys need to stay away from Golf courses

It is true though. Every surgeon in the practice he is in plays golf all the time.

Orthopedic Surgery on knees

Orthopedic Surgery on knees

Cool beans yo. If it weren't for my orthopaedist, I wouldn't have my leg. He's the only one in Philly who is also an orthopaedic oncologist and teaches at the U of Penn. He is an AWESOME surgeon, but he's moving to Minnesota.

Ugh I realy hate this time of the month.

I tell you these surgeons can do a lot nowadays. My dad mentioned one case where this guy had his leg crushed at work and they saved the leg. He had a full knee replacement though I think my dad said, but his leg was saved.

Is it the Christmas time blues or the girly thing?

I guess so. I mean more than my dad had to help him. I remember my dad saying there had to be many vascular surgeons involved to.

My tumor was right at the base of my femur, on the inside. It was actually pushing my knee cap over, which is what started the whole thing. I have a knee replacement and a titanium rod in my femur. The only thing left that is mine is my kneecap, which seems entirely waaaay too small for my knee now. It is AMAZING that they could do this instead of amputating my leg, which used to be standard for the type of cancer I had.

There has been so many advancement in past several years. People always say oh we aren't given to research because they haven't done anything for like forever, but that is so not true. There is always finds everyday even though it may be small it may one day lead to something huge.

Yeah orthopedic doctors can do so much nowadays. One lady I know Just had knee replacement surgery (shes only about 45ish but she has messed her knee up so bad before that that was the only option left). But 2 weeks after the surgery, she can already run. Next week, she is expected to play basketball again. It used to take months to recover from that surgery.

 

[DisneyLily]

O.K.

Your the first person to acknowledge that. Whenever I say BRB people ignore me.

I'm jealous!

I STILL can't run, and it's been 1 year and 3 months since surgery. My femur broke during surgery, so I was stuck in bed for 6 weeks with a CPM machine. That thing seriously saved my knee, without it I would've gone back for a maniuplation. I have full range, it's even better than some with normal knees.
