That's tough, Danny! It really brings it home how big this kind of surgery is.
Glad to hear you're staying strong, it can't be easy. I'll try and cheer you up when you get back to Easingwold.
All the best,Mike.

Touch wood mate it will but unfortunately the whole hip episode has blocked me from my chosen career paths which bums me out.

[Dannywayoflife]

Had several more seizures I am now in icu not good at the mo. Waiting on xray to make sure my seizures hasn't wrecked the bhr

[Snowbound]

Thanks. I have experimented with putting a cushion under my calves to raise my legs, and putting a couple of pillows under my knees.  Last night was much better so hopefully I'm over the worst of it.

[Pat Walter]

My thoughts and prayers are with you.  Having been thru open heart surgery and a-fib for 8 days, I know how scary it is.  My a-fib was not as bad as seizures.

Hang in there.  We are all there with you in thoughts and prayers.  God Bless.

Sorry to bum you out. It was supposed to be a funny line "give your life back". But I know what you mean. I was quite a footy player until my joints put a damper on that whole thing. I still had quite a run though despite playing with pain for so many years.

Hi Mate.

Can't believe it after the the tough recovery with the last one. Not good.! 

Let me know if you're up for calls and I'll bell you later.

You know Danny, I've read about all kinds of complications from hip replacement/resurfacing, but this is the first I've seen cardiac arrest. Whew! Good luck with the catheter, swelling, and all of that other stuff that you already know about.

As it wasn't a "heart attack", I trust there is no permanent damage from the cardiac arrest? Do they have any idea what caused it?

Praying that your recovery will be less eventful than it's been so far. Good luck!
