Total Hip Replacement

On October 1st, I became the proud new owner of a prosthetic hip. The past week or so has been very challenging. Sometimes the pain is so intense that all I can do is cry. Today, in an effort to speed up my healing, I made an intentional effort to focus on the positive. This blog post counts towards that positivity! Each day, I will ask myself this: “What made today better than yesterday?” Here’s my list for today:

  • I was awake, dressed and downstairs before 9am
  • I wore my FitBit to track my steps
  • I test drove the cane (instead of the walker) and walked about 50 feet
  • I made it through the day without a nap
