Dear Friends:
I am schedule for complete hip replacement surgery on my right hip with a new titanium hip for August 30, 2011 at 8:30am EST. I would ask for your prayers during this time. Both my primary care physician, and my orthopedic surgeon both anticipate a routine procedure with no complications based on my recent blood test results.
According the place I will have surgery at 8:30am on the 30th. The surgery can take from 3 to 5 hours. Once completed, I will return to my room (after waking in recovery) and will be in the hospital for 3 days. Hopefully on Friday, September 2, 2011 I will be discharged and allowed to go home. The next month will consist of physical therapy 3 times a week (plus home exercises). My orthopedic surgeon said I should be up on my feet later in the day after surgery and I should be able to resume normal daily living activities after the second week.
Thank you in advance for your prayers and support.
Peace,
Br Jeff
