Happy Friday, my Fabulous FS Followers!

I am just three days post surgery and doing incredible! Because the second hip was less damaged to start with, my hip replacement surgery was only 90 minutes! The orthopedic center has their own overnight program and I was sent home on Wednesday.

I am already able to stand, get up and down from chairs, and the bed with the walker or cane. Lots of ice, elevation and some pain medication are making it much less difficult than the last time.
