We got the bill today. The knee itself, just the mechanical part, was $12,000.

But we're on the welfare, and they will pay the biggest part of her bill.

Wish her the best.

My mom had both knees put in at the same time when she was 82. It took her a month or so to get going half decent again, but she doesn't have the pain she had before.

Steps give her trouble still, but otherwise she gets around ok.

(Guess i should say "stairs")

I don't think she would like a dinner out of anything I coughed up.

Just because he talks outta it most the time, doesn't mean he coughs outta it.

For 12K I would expect some amazing results...

Do you want someone to start a go fund me account for you?


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

That sounds about right in the US. Thankfully she has insurance. Praying for a speedy recovery

You should have just stopped by the Funeral Home and picked her up a good used one, probably 1/3 of the price. Those folks don't need them anymore. JUST KIDDING


Hope she continues with her speedy recovery.

Friend of mine flew to India and got a hip replaced for 9k, including plane tickets. FWIW

Shoot Hal, I bet that will take most of your beaver fur check. Tell Miz to hang in there.

You may laugh but my brother had reconstructive knee surgery and they grafted a cadaver tendon onto his to rebuild it. He has a little limp when he walks. I tell him the donor must have been a Homey and he has that cool "Pimp Limp" now. smile

Here's hoping for a fast recovery, and pain free future.
