March

On March 1st I recieved a new hip at the University Hospital in SLC. It is now the end of the month and I am surviving quite well. The Good Shephards have kicked in and I have had nurses come and check my blood twice a week and Therapists also. I have one more week and they will be through and it will be up to me to continue the exercises and care that I need to do to be able to completely heal. I should consider a year. It is quite amazing how the body heals though. I can see progress each day that is better than the last.

I am starting my painting classes this Wednesday again. I believe in keeping busy. I have lain around long enough. Wanda and Wendy have taken the best of care of me. I thank the Lord every day for all they and others have given to me. I am really blessed. My back continues to be the problem and I guess always will. My knee seems to have arthritis that kicks in pretty good. Hopefully it will get better.
