  12. fred, be brave. LOL I know you will sail right through this. my sister is having knee replacement surgery next month. I guess aging affects your knee's more than I thought. I will say some prayers for you. good luck be prepared for a lot of therapy and getting out of bed the day after the surgery. keep us updated as you can. kimmie
  13. hi rose, I'm so sorry about your fall, but thankful you are ok!! isn't stroke recovery exciting? LOL interesting question cipeko asked, I too had my stroke in my bathroom, or at least on the the way there. the br is where I finally collapsed. I have you in my thoughts and prayers, that no further incidents set you back in your recovery. lord knows, none of us need that, we are trying to go forward and heal, not backward and decline. please stay safe and be well. kimmie
