Praying for you, Keith.

I am not far behind you. Since my knee replacement 14 months ago, my gait has been off just enough to throw my direction off a few inches here, there, and yonder, and stepping on a slightly higher rock or bump or just a low spot almost makes me fall. I am well aware of it and my wife has noticed it too. My legs are the same length, so it is not that. I exercise on an exercise bike, so I am not immobile. And I work part time 4 days a week most weeks.

The problem is I have arrived at the situation almost to where you are, and I know that I am a step away from a fall. The certainty of total stability while walking or even standing without something to lean is just gone. My doctors know it and tell me to "be careful". "Use a cane, take one with you even when you don't think you need it."

I did not expect to get this way this quick. My mind is fine (OK, No comments from those that know me 😁 ) but my body is playing tricks on me too. Praying for you!
 
Best wishes for a speedy recovery!

Next time you fly, don't forget to tell the nice TSA agent about your new hardware. :)
 
And I bet no one told you either that the 'golden years' just meant you were gonna need lots of it for medical bills!!! Wishing you a full, quick recovery.

I think they are called the "Golden Years" because you need a ton of it to survive.
My sister in law fell last week and broke her hip in three places.
Get well quick Keith
