Title: 10 year celebration
Post by: edwin.pritchard on April 10, 2017, 10:26:24 AM
I haven't posted on here for a few year's but have been reading here for 10 1/2 year's since Vicky helped me find out information about hip resurfacing.  I had both hip's go bad almost 11 year's ago now, I found my doctor in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada that fall and he resurface both hip's on April 4 and April 13/2007 with Birminham  joint's. Dr. Burnell had only done 30 some resurfacing's at that time but I took the chance and they have worked out great. I still farm some, walk a few mile's everyday with my dog. I will be 72 in a few day's and feel blessed that I can still live life to the fullest. I enjoy reading stories of other people's success's after their operation's. Thank you to the people that have kept this site going.  Edwin Pritchard, Carman, Manitoba.
