A "Joint Project" between the brain and the hip!


Happy Thursday everybody!

After this morning’s physical therapy session which included walking up and down four stairs with a railing, the therapist’s recommendation is that Judy should stay in a rehabilitation place for a few days, to continue improving the use of her new hip. 

In other words, she is learning new, necessary habits now that she has a functional hip, albeit one with surgical pain instead of “old, rusty hip pain” which is what she is used to. Even simple things, like getting in and out of bed are more of a challenge than actual walking. 

Her hospital graduation will most likely occur this afternoon, and I will keep everybody abreast of her new, temporary home. It will most likely be in coastal Carlsbad.
