10 Year Update Jim’s Bilateral Hip Resurfacing Dr. Marwin 2011
November 8, 2021 – Jim’s Original Story Here
It’s been a great 10 years!
Thank you Pat, for all the important information that you make available on this site. Thank you to Dr Scott Marwin, who I found on this site. He performed the bilateral surgery for me back when same day bilaterals were a rarity. And thank you to all the physical therapists at NYU Langone Rusk rehab center for getting me ready for the rest of my life. I stayed in the hospital for 9 days and had PT three times a day. They taught me all the things I’d need like how to get into the shower or get into the car. On the 9th day I walked from my room out the front door and into the car for my wife to drive me home.
I started running again at 6 months and I did my first sprint triathlon in Hawaii at right around the one year mark.
I’m still running 3 days on 1 day off and, although I’ve slowed a lot, I’m hoping to be racing again once everything clears up.
HR made it all possible. Once again, thanks Pat for everything you’ve done.
