We all have our moments bonniemillie, so shout out from the rooftops if it helps!

Have they given you any idea as to when you can have your hip replaced? I have some underdtanding of the pain you are in as a family member was in agony before eventually having the operation. What a difference it's made to her life.

So, Be positive, it will happen so hang in there!

Yep ?I want a new knee ...or two so guess that’ll be on the back burner. Don’t want to use up all my paracetamol either just in case. So

I take a couple so I can get some gardening done!
