Finally after being told my knee replacement wouldn't be till middle of July I had a letter to go in June 26th. Here's hoping it goes well as my hip has taken so long due to the knee.

Just this week I have had a lovely day out first time since October now I worry about 2 weeks away am I going through it all again fills me with dread 😟😟

That makes a change doesn't it Rose?! It's not often op dates are sooner than estimated. Hope the time flies til then & once you're fully recovered from your knee op your hip feels the benefit. x

Gosh, bringing an operation forward doesn't happen too often, does it? It will certainly cut down on the time available for worrying and, with any luck, the weather will be so much kinder for your recuperation. Here's to your improved mobility! Hugs
