Prayers are requested for my wife and myself to guide our full recovery!
Here I am back from my 4 week post-op visit. I am 77 and slipped in the yard and ruptured my right Quad Tendon on Sept. 11. The Doc said he thought I was doing Great. Increased my Leg load to 40 #. He also opened my Brace to 50 Degrees - Cheer-Cheer! He said not to put that 40# load on the Leg with the Leg bent - suggested I lock the Brace when I walk to protect the repair. I will continue Quad Sets, Toe curls and Active Straight Leg lifts and 1 x per week At Home PT for the next 4 weeks.
My loving wife and Super Caregiver tripped over MY WHEEL CHAIR and fractured a Hip Bone. She had a Minimally Invasive Smith- Nephew Joint replacement today. The surgery went well and she is doing wonderfully. I am now the Caregiver and with the help of out-of-town family members we will do great. My wife will be able to get around near normal and drive in three weeks.
God Bless my wife, myself, members of this Forum and the Healthcare Professionals in this great Country of America.
Healing to all!

May the One who blessed our ancestors —
Patriarchs Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob,
Matriarchs Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel, and Leah —
bless and heal the ones who are ill.
May the Holy Blessed One
overflow with compassion upon them,
to restore them,
to heal them,
to strengthen them,
to enliven them.
The One will send them, speedily,
a complete healing —
healing of the soul and healing of the body —
along with all the ill,
among the people of Israel and all humankind,
soon,
speedily,
without delay,
and let us all say: Amen!
God bless you both.
