Mom had knee surgery yesterday. I called her this afternoon to see how she was doing. Aside from feeling stoned from the pain meds, she's doing very well. This is the easy part. When it hurts she's a good patient. It's when it starts feeling better that it's hard to make her follow the rules. She's always trying to do things and then accidentally re-injuring it. Hopefully, the one in charge of helping her heal will be up to the challenge. Good luck!
