My right hip replacement surgery (total hip arthroplasty) is scheduled for four weeks from today.
YIKES!
That's going to be here before I know it.
So much to do. So little time.
I've mapped out on a calendar what I think needs attention before the big day, so I can pace myself as I take care of the important stuff. And to ensure that I don't forget anything that really needs doing. Like paying bills at the appropriate times. Have to make sure I queue all the ones that need to be paid while I might be laid up, away from the computer.
I've mentally made my "packing" lists and over the next couple of days I guess I'll actually put them to paper. One for the short hospital stay, another in the event that I am again sent to rehab (which I expect will happen). Last time, I was caught off guard when I went to the rehab centre and I had to talk John through finding the clothing that I needed. This time, I'll have a bag already packed for him to grab!
But four weeks until I'm back to using a walker?
Yikes!!!!!
