Default I'm having hip replacement surgery on Monday.

I'll stay three nights at Glendale Adventist after surgery and two or more nights at a rehab unit after that. We visited the rehab unit on Saturday. It's mostly an old folks home, so I'm sure I'll want the hell out ASAP.

Be well and speedy recovery.

I know a couple people who have had it done and I understand even immediately after surgery, most people feel less pain than they did in the joint than before surgery.

(But I can only say good things about percoset! )
