Recovering from Total Knee Replacement with the Podcast Team

[Quicklabs]

I just have to say a big thanks to the entire Podcast team. I had my knee replaced just three weeks ago. I pre-loaded a few audio Podcasts and was listening to them within 6 hours after surgery. They provided such a great distraction throughout my three day long hospital stay. I had trouble with falling asleep after my every three hour vitals were taken, so I would put in my ear buds, get a popsicle from the nursing staff, and be transported to Disney by the insights and humor of the podcast team. Recovery from TKR is no joke, and I still have quite a bit of pain and sleeplessness. Instead of popping a Percocet, I pop on a podcast video and feel so much better. Oftentimes, I watch a video while I'm doing those oh so miserable Physical Therapy exercises.

I just wanted the Podcast team to know how much their hard work touches lives in ways that probably don't realize sometimes.

Thanks for being on my treatment team! I'm such a fan.

"Instead of popping a Percocet, I pop on a podcast"

Does this mean we will now need a prescription to listen/watch the podcast?

Hope your knees heal quickly.

Thanks for the good wishes. TKR is definitely not a fun ride! LOL

I hope you are recuperating nicely. Take it easy and thanks for watching or listening to the Podcast.

Isn't it great, there's always a funny show you can listen too if you need a distraction. I hope you feel better soon.
