Poor hubby

Had his knee replaced tow weeks ago after having it cancelled 3 times.

 He had been this far before!

After the op same day. He chose to have an epidural so that he was awake during the op - which should mean a faster and less painful recovery.

He was full of Morphine here.

Allowed to go home after 1 day - although we had to wait a few hours to be discharged and it was almost 11pm by the time we finally got home.

 

If you look closely, you can see that he was bleeding on the carpet - I got it out but it kept bleeding the next day, so we ended up in A & E for a few hours.

They took blood to test for infection but the wound was surrounded by blisters . We think he was allergic to the glue in the dressing , so they redressed it before we went home.

Two weeks later - he has had two physio appointments and the dressing removed. 

He has exercises to do three times a day and is walking outside for a few minutes each day ( when its not raining) 

He was having a play with my copic pens here.

We still have a way to go and he is desperate for a bath - we have no shower.

More Physio appointments next week.
