September 22nd, 2011 | Author: carriesuepepper
Today, while I was working on a blog that I was a bit bored with, feeling a little down and needing a little encouragement, I Googled Jim Rohn. This is the video that came up first and it gave me an instant lift.
Hip, Hip . . . Hooray!

My new hip and I are home and doing great! I’m on day 4 of my six-week recovery program and aside from the tenderness where the stitches are, I have literally NO pain! I wanted to put a few people’s minds to rest on the subject of metal-on-metal hips.
September 1st & it’s 6 days to go!

Today is September 1 and in six days, I’ll be hopping on a plane to Los Angeles to get hip #2! All systems are go – I’ve jumped through all the hoops (dental check-up ok, blood work ok, chest x-ray, ultra-sound . . . all A-OKAY. I’ve signed all the forms – ones saying that if my surgeon is unavailable that NO ONE else is allowed to touch me; ones saying that if I should need blood, they are allowed to give me a transfusion (making sure I know the risks of hepatitis or HIV — miniscule but possible. AND, I’ve been taking my LifePak Nano and drinking my G3 — and eating blueberries and nibbling on tomatoes and apples so that my antioxidant score will be as high as possible. Did you know that recovery from surgery is better and faster if we have a HIGH score? I didn’t know this until an incredibly compassionate doctor, Dr. Ben Gonzales, share this with me. Thank you Ben!
