now its my wife...........

[mike89]

good advice Glenn, you stay the course!!!   

[roony]

Yes, one day at a time. Thinking of you.

[glenn57]

Thanks guys, it was a pretty quiet morning. I'm spending a lot of time outside!!

I get it though!!

[Dotch]

That's the best way to handle it glenn, one day, one thing at a time. Spending it outside doesn't hurt. The guy whose wife recently had hospice called in comes in to visit in the mornings. Needs to unload & get away for a while. Same thing with him. One day at a time and he spends a lot of them outside putzing or mowing lawn.

[LPS]

Hang in there bud.  Outside is always a good thing!

[glenn57]

Got the word. Looks like I'll be taking my bride to the U of M Friday.

I'll have to admit that it's a little scary!🙄

[Steve-o]

No doubt.  I'll be keeping you guys in my prayers.

[mike89]

keep us posted bud..  we all will be praying for her!!!   

[LPS]

I'd be damn scared too Glenn.  BUT you can rest assured that they know what they are doing and everything will be just fine.  The best attitude you can both have at this point. 

[Bobberineyes]

Yep Glenn like lps said She'll be in good hands, the traffic however is what you should be worried about. Give her another swat on the butt from the mno boys!

[glenn57]

  will do.

Thanks guys, appreciated!!

Yea for me that's the scary part, the other part is my wife's sister dealt with her husband down there in May, they say the food there is horrendous. I'm packing a lunch

[roony]

Best wishes

[Gunner55]

keep us posted bud..  we all will be praying for her!!!   

  Good luck, hope it all goes well bud.

[markn]

Good luck on Friday for yourself and Mrs. Thoughts are with the both of you. I spent a few days down there in 2014 to remove a piece of my right kidney. VERY good people work there. Had me in and out in two and half days. 

[Jerkbiat]

Best wishes to your wife and you Glenn on Friday. Like others have said she will be in good hands there! Stay positive and strong for her.

[Cooperman]

Good luck for you and your bride Glenn.

[glenn57]

Thanks again guys!!👍 That's the crazy part, they say surgery is Friday and she'll go home Saturday if all goes well.

If I remember correctly she was in for 2-3 days after they did he hip the first time???

[LPS]

Only overnight after getting a new hip???   

[mike89]

doing orthoscopic surgery they can, less invasive... 

[KEN W]

Good luck Glenn. Hope everything goes well.

[glenn57]

Only overnight after getting a new hip???

technically it's not a new hip, there putting in a spacer loaded with meds to try and kill this infection and a pik line for more meds to get rid of the infection. If in 3 to 6 to 9 months if they get rid of the infection then they'll put in a new hip, but her leg will be shorter.

I learned a long time ago that Insurance companies make a lot of these standards for hospital stays, but I also got schooled that the insurance companies have a lot of medical people making these calls.

[LPS]

OK got it.  I remember you talking about that too.

[mike89]
