Kim Reiser had her Hip Resurfacing in
chennai. She has the following to report by e-mail |

I continue to be excited and thankful
about my progress. At the end of week 4, I was hiking at the edge of
the wilderness again and doing stream crossings in the crystal clean
mountain water. (photo attached) During the 6th week, my hiking time
was up to 8 hours on relatively easy terrain along the headwaters of
the Dearborn river. My quads and hamstrings are building strength
daily and the ROM is almost back to normal. I still am challenged by
a full squat but I keep working on it each day using props for
support. |
|
I don't tire of telling you how grateful
I am to be walking again and to be able to enjoy the restorative
beauty of the Montana mountains--it's absolutely terrific! |
|
I passed my physical exam for entry into
the RN program with flying colors. The doctor was amazed at my quick
recovery and declared me top fit for clinical rotations. Now just
one more year to go and I'll transitions from an LPN to an RN and
then hope to work on the med/surg floor in the veterans hospital
here in Helena.
|
I hope all is well with you and the
staff at the Apollo hospital - Hip Resurfacing (http://www.hipresurfacingindia.com) . Kindly pass along my fond regards.

Sincerely, |
