Aunt Doris

Aunt Doris just had knee replacement surgery. She is 83 and has never experienced so much pain. She is a tough old lady but this one surprised her. She is brave and is learning how to cope with the rehab. She has to have the other knee done in a few months. Sherry, her daughter, is taking such good care of her but has realized how much the old lady did around the house. Sherry is getting tired and everynight around 9 she is ready for bed. Doris says this is more pain then she has ever had. But she will be okay and be stronger for it. If she doesn't have both knees fixed, she could live to be 99 and be in a wheel chair most of that time. So she believes, she better get both knees fixed.
