In Reply to: About the knee! posted by Fixerupper on June 25, 2012 at 18:23:50:
I have had both knees replaced. first was several years ao and got along just great. Left knee was doe by a surgeon that did the less evasive snakker incision. It never has been right. It always felt tight.complained "Oh it will get over it". some six years later it was worst and I was losing ground. Now I am in the rest home and they have some good physical therapist(and they are pretty good looking)I decided I was going to see if I could going. Showed my knee to the cute little thing. "Well something does not look right with your knee cap" Start working on it and started moving it around. Did this exercise and then another. Would hang weights on my ankles. Thought it was not doing much good. But everyday yhis cute little thing would show up at the room. "Come on it is time for theraphy". so off we went to the room. First thing was the maniplation of the knee cap.Finally "Get up out of your chair. I will help you walk with the walker" This I really dreaded because my shoulder alway hurt so bad. (rotor cuffs are shot will not reccomend surgery. Every one else always grabbed a shoulder aor a hand to help me up. She put a lift belt around me got in front om and walker and helped me raise up. I was able to walk and my shoulders did not hurt. Orders went out No pulling on my shoulder use lift strap. I i have walked several imes across the room and today I go out in the hall to walk. What am I trying to say? Well Doctors and tharapist are like tractors and then there are tractors. Some can and some cannot. The end thing is do not give up. Ride some bodies b**** till it is right. I was to soft on the surgeon He had done a lousy job and fit the new joint to tight and expected the muscles to stretch and correct his mistake. The tharapist he used tryed to strech them by putting my heal on a bolster then jump down on the knee to strech rhe muscles,Was able to swing around on bed,get my feet on floor, stand up and walk to my chair this morning by my self. So get on your surgeon.gitrib

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
