Hip #2 Done, What's next?

Hello all, sorry for the delay on this update but I have some good news. Hip number 2 has been replaced. Last week, Friday Sept 12th, we were finally able to get the surgery scheduled and completed. Once again, the actual event went smoothly.   I was able to be in and out of the hospital in just over 48 hours. Once I was released and home we had some great help with my parents visiting from Chicago.  They were able to help me with my day to day activities, as well as be my personal limo service getting me to doctor appointments and blood labs. Unfortunately, they had to return home Saturday, so today (Monday Sept 22nd) is my first day limping alone at home. Overall I am doing OK not much different than last time.   More bone ache and more pain pills but things are moving in the right direction. With this being the second hip,I do feel more unstable and will need some physical therapy to help me move around better. I don't know when that will start but I am looking forward to it. It is finally time to take some big steps forward with the new me. For now, I will need to stay patient and wait for the PT to take effect as I continue to reset my childhood immunisations and balance my chronic mouth and gut GVHD. It might not look like it but I think we are turning a corner and more good things are to come.
