So I'm heading up to Denver to spend the night before surgery, since my checkin time for surgery is 5:30am and I'd rather make the hour and a half drive tonight.  Thanks for the prayers and well wishes. 

Good luck, Larry!

Come race with us once you heal up.

Good luck, Larry! Break a leg!

Wait, is that right?

Haven't been around much. Sorry to hear things have not been going well for you and your daughter. Hoping this procedure is successful.

Hey gang,

So, I woke up in post-op recovery about 4 hours ago.  I'm having much better pain control than the last few leg surgeries. I've got a 1mg/hour morphine drip and can push a button to get an extra 1mg every 10 minutes, but only need it like every 30-60 minutes.

The doctor says things went really well, and if I hadn't swapped the old skinny rod in my femur for this fatter one that I'd probably have never had my bone heal.  The old rod wasn't very tight inside the bone anymore, and I was wobbling around on the rod, basically re-breakng any bone that would have been healing.

i was very scared to have a fifth surgery after the accident, but I'm so happy that I did.

I'll likely go home Saturday, but I'm hoping that if my pain is under control and my weight bearing with physical therapy goes well today that I could go home tomorrow (30-40% chance if I push hard).

Woot!

Excellent news, Larry. Heal well, heal quick.

Great news! You certainly deserve some good news on the health front!

I may be their first patient to go in for an "exchange nailing" of the femur rod who went home the next day.  Sayonara Swedish Medical Center, hello home with my new tempur-pedic bed...

The doctor, physical therapist, and occupational therapist saw how well I was doing moving around, and cleared me for discharge. My fracture doesn't hurt anymore, but boy am I sore around the incisions, with tender and stiff muscles all around my upper leg!  So, I get to double my dose of Oxycodone for the next several days. Can you say Buzz?

Rest up and take it easy, Larry.  Glad to hear that things went well.

Glad to hear of the upward trend Larry. Keep healing.

[Torpedo]

I'm glad you're doing like we said, heal well and quickly!

Rest up and take it easy, Larry.  Glad to hear that things went well.

This.

Today has been a tough day, not so much for pain but an upset stomach and nausea from the pain meds, and a empty feeling in my pit that usually goes away with food or antacids.  Have had some chills and a headache, but no fever.  Going to bed soon...
