Getting over Covid if not already over it.

Life should be simple but I still have to live with the 'jokers'. The 'jokers' are the ones that make life interesting.

In a few days, I have an operation (knee implant). To facilitate that 'everything' will go 'good', my doctor wrote a prescription for a walker. The place that was suppose to fulfil that prescription claims they do not carry walkers. So, I went to my insurance's clinic and they said I would have to be evaluated by their physical therapist to see if I need a walker. That happens on the 27th and the operation is on the 23rd. As I told them, I doubt I will get the walker. LOL!

With the coldness we have been having lately, arthritis is keeping me lame. I have come to realize that what I should have an operation is one of my feet. I have had it reconstructed 2 times already and it looks like it needs a 3rd time. Maybe I can have that done next year.

John......
Must be something in the water . I'm getting a call on the 28th to let me know if they can issue a walker for me ....
( Maybe if they ask my address I can give them yours LOL...would be too late for this surgery but might come in handy for the second surgery next month ! )

[Native spirit]

I to have been asked if i want a walker I declined because my spine is getting worse with the Arthritis.
Im waiting on operations also hope all goes well for you


Namaste

Im so sorry Native

[Cattems]

Lol, and so we just keep limping along.

Good John. The "over the covid" part anyway. You might go to your local thrift shop. You can get one for pennies on the dollar if they have some. It usually comes in waves. Sometimes they have an abundance of them, sometimes they have none. Good luck.

I could buy a walker if I wanted to but my insurance is suppose to pay for one. This is not the first time I have caught them playing this dastardly game. But then on the other hand, my surgeon has worked on me a few other times. As he has claimed, when I was supposed to have had physical therapy other times, on my own, I did my own therapy and had exceeded his expectations.

Honestly...
If we all put all of our "good bits" together we STILL wouldn't have a full healthy person !!
These youngsters don't know what they have to look forward to LOL...

Oh gosh though , I wonder John if you are getting nervous ?
I would be , but then I'm a coward .
It's happening at a good time though , because when its all over ( both surgeries) you will be able to run around on your nice new legs when you emigrate to live the dream !! That's the plan anyway LOL....

[BigJohn]

I also would like to have one of my feet rebuilt. I don't know if my surgeon will want to do that.

For over a year now I have been thinking that when I move, I want to have in my pocket a ticked to go back to Katmandu for a visit.

Just found out, my wife has found a place that is next to a ....... football stadium. LOL!

[AngelBlue]

LOL... That's funny ! Bless her , does she know it's next to a football stadium ?
Hilarious.
( So much for the peaceful life !! ..)

I hope your foot can be rebuild , I know you are using a caliper to try and correct it, but you were also talking about potential amputation.
I don't think it will come to that ... You have a few mountains to climb yet !!
I know you are all so excited about this move. And you all deserve this, you have all been through the mill this year.
