Mother will be 79 next month, and her knee has forced her to quit playing tennis 3x a week. She doesn't foresee going back to tennis, but walking without pain would be a nice plus.

My mother's knee surgery was Tuesday, and it went very well. Fixed a torn meniscus, cleaned up a bunch of arthritis, harvested and injected stem cells.

She had way more issues from her pain meds (mother does NOT do opiates or their cousins well at all - she shakes, she can't stand up, she can't talk...) She was walking a few hours after the procedure and once she swapped Tramadol for Tylenol all is well.

Her Dr. was impressed with how many stem cells he was able to get from her (hip). She had quantities usually associated with a 'much younger' person. Mother was might proud of that - could have been the drugs talking :)
Great news! I'm sure it is the tennis that kept her young. Vibes for quick recovery.
Life is good!

Was waiting for mother to finish her rehab. This was on the table. It. Never. Gets. Old.

The weather is so beautiful. We're really enjoying our time at the lake. We will have to go home at some point this week. Bud's surgery is July 5. He has a very good doc. DD very much approves.

They were going to be here, but being scheduled for a quintuple cardiac bypass made it tough for the folks to travel so far :( Totally bummed, but Dad's health comes first.
