All the best in surgery and recovery. Follow physio's instructions to a 'T' and don't rush the healing process nekminit you'll be right as rain.
When I was younger I spent a lot of money on wild women, alcohol and drugs. The rest I just kind of wasted.
I used to think I would do the same and now I'm 83. It's been a long blaze.For you, maybe. I plan to go out in a blaze of glory in my 30's.
Wishing you a speedy recovery.
lol in college my alcohol was mainly free of charge. had a friend in the dorm who had age issues. I had money issues... naturally a great meetin of the minds.When I was younger I spent a lot of money on wild women, alcohol and drugs. The rest I just kind of wasted.
I never did the rent a cow options... much to cheap for that.
so now your liver is shot, your back is killing you, and you are broke living in a old age rehab center.When I was younger I spent a lot of money on wild women, alcohol and drugs. The rest I just kind of wasted.
Ah but the memories!so now your liver is shot, your back is killing you, and you are broke living in a old age rehab center.

Well based on modern costs for such surgeries you can become the new "Six Million Dollar Man"!
It is no good to complain as others have symptoms much worse than
yours might be, as we age , yes , body parts wear out , it is our
attitude that must stay strong as long as possible, shipmodeling
became my refuge , keeps the mind active ,always challenging ,
fortunately at 92 I can still do it but you must have the will , I
too have had many set backs with aging but life goes on and so
make the best of it. Wish you have successful surgery all the
best.

I'm at Day 10 post-op for knee replacement. My PT person and I have been working together for a few years, so he's got a pretty good sense of my capabilities and limits. Trust me that he goes right to the edge of the limits. I'm trying to balance PT rigorousness with avoiding opioids, so there are some periods of interrupted nighttime sleep that are annoying.
My shipyard is upstairs and my temporary recovery location is downstairs, so HMS Victory has been languishing, though due to no fault of its own. Happily SOS online keeps me in the loop.

Your uncle is an example to all of us, and puts perspective on our lesser challenges.
