Karen had hip replacement surgery yesterday 3/8 at the Peace Health Hospital in Vancouver. We arrived at the hospital at 7:30 am, and I left around 3 pm.
The surgery went well. She is recovering nicely. They had her stay at the hospital last night.
I will pick Karen up today and bring her home. We will have lessons from physical therapists and occupational therapists. Once cleared by the doctor we will drive home.
We are prepared for appropriate "by the book" recovery protocols. They give you a large notebook with instructions, lots of verbal reinforcement, and tools and methods needed for effective recovery of a hip replacement.
