Wild Horse John Posted December 21, 2016 Posted December 21, 2016 Ted is going in for a knee replacement tomorrow morning. While not a serious procedure, surgery under general anesthesia is serious enough. Besides he's now a certified "old fart", he turned 70 last week. So prayers are in order. My wife, Clementine Pennyfeather, has her church prayer line on the job. But the more the better. Quote
Garrison Joe, SASS #60708 Posted December 21, 2016 Posted December 21, 2016 Prayers up for "the old man". Ted is a great pard to shoot with and swap lies with as well. May the medicos work efficiently and skillfully, and may recovery be a breeze. God Bless, GJ Quote
Marshal Chance Morgun Posted December 22, 2016 Posted December 22, 2016 Had both of mine replaced 4 years ago. No, not at the same time. The surgeries went so well that I was shooting a match 13 days after the surgery. Here's hoping his goes just as well. Quote
Del Rio Pete Posted December 22, 2016 Posted December 22, 2016 Praying the knee replacement will work as doctors and Ted expect. Free from pain & infection. Quote

Judge Gardner Posted December 22, 2016 Posted December 22, 2016 I'm sure his knee will come out just fine the Doc are very good these days. I hope is not using a Doc that is in SASS Quote
Grizzly Dave Posted December 22, 2016 Posted December 22, 2016 Ted whoops up on me as it is, with a bionic knee he'll really be off to the races. Best of luck to Ted, Misty, and the nurses. Quote
Pit Bull Tex Posted December 22, 2016 Posted December 22, 2016 Prayers up for a complete healing and a very speedy and easy recovery. Quote
Lodan B. Fast Posted December 22, 2016 Posted December 22, 2016 Ted know that you are in our prayers. God bless. If you need anything all you need to do is call. Merry Christmas. LBF Quote
Linn Keller, SASS 27332, BOLD 103 Posted December 23, 2016 Posted December 23, 2016 I worked with a skinny old farrr ... a skinny old farrr ... a skinny old GEEZER and we both worked ambulance, he was beyond retirement age, he'd been a professional chauffeur and he was a darn good medic partner. He'd had one knee replaced once and the other knee replaced twice. This ornery old farrr ... farrr ... this skinny old geezer could work me into the ground any day he wanted, go out and dance all night and come back and do it again the next day and make it look EASY ... and he told me, "Kels, if I knew how much better my knees would feel, I'd have had them replaced before they went bad!"

Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted December 25, 2016 Posted December 25, 2016 Interesting! Prayers up for Ted. I'm waiting to get both done. Good to hear about the results. Quote
Linn Keller, SASS 27332, BOLD 103 Posted December 25, 2016 Posted December 25, 2016 Surgery was scheduled for the 22nd, if I read it correctly. After action report? Quote
Grizzly Dave Posted December 25, 2016 Posted December 25, 2016 I read on facebook that all went well and he was on track to go home as scheduled. Quote
Dakota Rebel, SASS# 58412 Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 My wife had her right knee replaced on Dec 5. About 4 days in the hospital, then to a residential rehab center 8 days for therapy. She has been at home now for about 10 days. She still walks with a walker due to balance. She experienced some muscle cramping on the sides of the incision that was painful. The knee pain is gone now. Just dealing with the post surgical recovery. Quote
