Pauline, so sorry to hear this - I will be praying for you, your mum and all the hospital staff.

Mum resting comfortably in Hosp.Mabey another week there. She has to have a stint in her heart before they will do knee. Not sure if the will do it then as she is o/weight. Thankyou all for kind thoughts. Have been passed on to Mum :)

Praying 4U both!

So very sorry for hear this Pauline, how it hurts when it is our Mum...for all the years she kissed our little booboos better and now our Mumès seem to have such big booboos,remembering how it was with our Mom a couple of years back when she fell and broke her hip at 95...we can only be there for them and hope the Drs. can do their magic...hang in there Pauline, one day at a time...Hugs Glenda x0x0x0

Hope things are going a bit better today.

sorry to read this Pauline. Hope your mum will be alright and in good hands. Prayers for mum and hugs for you!

Pauline, so sorry to her about your Mum. Hope all goes well. Will keep you and her in my prayers. Hugs Yvonne

I think the key is "Needs new one. Today!" I have both knees and both hips replaced (one hip and knee on the same day, the others about 5 years later but 6 weeks apart). Recuperation is still 6 weeks or so to get back to full mobility but I am so very glad I had them done. I am in no pain, I go where I want, I can climb stairs, I can walk all over the mall (sometimes I need a shopping cart for a long stint) but I don't hurt. Get that new knee! Hope all goes well. Linda

I'm hoping that your Mum is at least feeling a bit better now. Will she be in hospital where she can be cared for until her knee is fixed up?
Sending thoughts of hope for a good recovery her way.
Much Love - Alma.

Sorry to hear about your MOM, keeping you and her in my prayers.Hugs, Stella

Dear Pauline, my heart goes out to you. My Mum had her right knee done last year in July - just as all the things were happening with Dad. My prayers are with you all. The operation is easy, it's the recuperation that takes time. Love and blessings Chris

I hope all things go well for your Mom. Please be strong for her, and your family. My DH had a kneereplacement in Feb 2011 and he is doing very well - walks all over and is not at all uncomfontable. Hope things go this well for your Mom. All the best. Prayers are with you. ***

Pauline, thinking of you and hope you get some uplifting news soon. hugs Helen

Oh dear, I am so sorry for your Mum, I know what knee pain is all about and I understand why you would be so concerned. I will keep my fingers crossed that it all turns out OK.
hugs n love, me

So sorry to hear this news about your mother. Will be keeping you both in my thoughts and prayers.
