It's a long recovery til I'm 100% but, according to the doctor, that's the whole enchilada. I will be driving in another month and able to go back to work in another 2 weeks if somebody drives me. Thank God for the computer & telephone. Thanks for all the good thoughts.

When I had my hips replaced, I had to use crutches and movement restrictions were significant. This is so much easier.
