    Suzanna: I’m a bit confused where is the subject bar of where I’m suppose to put knee replacement. Read above my comment, well maybe you can’t. but it has STRYKER GET AROUND KNEE. After reading this, terrifies me even more about getting two knee replacements. Now I don’t know what to do. Where is the subject bar column that you’re talking about?

      Lola, I think it is on the email, not the 1Funny website. I just sent one and waiting for a response. It was not addressed to Suz, just to 1Funny. We’ll see.

    MY OFFER STILL STANDS – IF EACH ONE OF YOU WILL SEND ME AN EMAIL I WILL PASS YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS TO THE 4 INVOLVED IN THIS CONVERSATION. I AM WILLING TO RISK PUTTING MY EMAIL ADDRESS HERE IN ORDER TO HELP Y’ALL. I DON’T THINK THE ADMIN WILL DO IT BECAUSE HE’D BE VIOLATING THE TERMS OF HIS WEBSITE. I STAY WITH AN ELDERLY LADY MYSELF. SHE’S HAD KNEE SURGERY MANY YEARS AGO, & MORE RECENTLY FRACTURED HER SHOULDER, THEN FELL DOWN & BROKE HER WRIST & HIP( AT THE SAME TIME)
    FORTUNATELY I WAS HERE TO TAKE CARE OF HER. I WILL GIVE THE EMAIL ADDRESSES TO ONLY THE ONES INVOLVED IN THIS CONVERSATION.
    [email protected]. – Be sure to put the subject in your email so I know

    To Liz first: Thank you for writing to ADMIN to see if you can get my e-mail address. Everyday for weeks I have been on the phone trying to get help for after surgery. The surgeon told me that I need to find nursing care on my own and that it would be difficult to find someone to come to the house. I called, AARP, the police department (as I was a former police officer with my husband, and they were suppose to get back to me…still waiting after ten days so far), the Senior Citizens Community Action Agency, several Churches, my chiropractor, massage physical therapist (who both had leads but no phone calls returned), colleagues of mine, and the list is endless. Yes, I’ve been working on trying to get help to the point of being drained mentally, emotionally, psychologically and physically. Just pray that I will make contact soon with someone so I can get this burden off my shoulders, that I can stay focus on other things until surgery, as I have much to get done in the house before surgery, plus I have to get pet care (I can’t afford $85-$89 a day to the Vet’s hospital), and because my one dog is diabetic needs shots 2x’s daily, no pet shop/borders want to take on the responsibility. That updates you.

    To Jean H. I was told that if you keep up with physical therapy faithfully that I wouldn’t need any or maybe they said many pain killers after the surgery. They are suppose to get me up the next day, work with me 2x’s a day, but I would need pain killers, but on an as needed basis, just not as many as I’m taking now. Once the knees heal I won’t need any pain killers at all. So please Jean H., do the physical therapy, stick with it, and know that eventually you will be off the pain killers all together.

    To Ruby: Thank you for your support. I’ve been storming heaven, and there is a reason which I discovered why I haven’t had the surgery as yet. Why it needs to be postponed. Three people months ago promised me faithfully they would be here for me before, during and after the surgery. That they would help me with the house, the animals, and me. Guess what Ruby, all backed out gradually as I was getting ready to go into the hospital to have the knees done. Luckily I found out before the surgery, otherwise my house, animals and I would be up a creek without a paddle. They all pulled the rug out from under me…making lame excuses. I didn’t say anything, just cried when I either got off the phone with them or when they left. So I have the chance now to continue looking for strangers to reach out and help. I’ll be 65 in December, my insurance company said for me to wait until medicare kicks in December 1st, then they will pay 80% of all my bills,and the insurance that I have now will pay the rest as my secondary insurance.

    That sums it up my friends, I have to close here. Took pain killers and need to lie down now and elevate my legs. Keep me in prayer and thank you all for trying to help and reach out to me. ADMIN, PLEASE GIVE OUT MY E-MAIL ADDRESS TO THE THREE PEOPLE HERE. I don’t know how to send it to them on a one on one.

    Many thanks and God bless

      You hang in there girl!! It’ll all come out in the wash, as my grannie was found of saying. We’re never given more than we can handle. Sometimes, I feel God has a whole lot more confidence in me than I do in myself. Just watch the pain pills. Don’t want to become addicted to them and have to go through rehab to get off of them

      You certainly have done a lot of varied things in your life. You are a survivor and will come out of all of this smelling like a rose. And sometimes, strangers become deep and lasting friends.

        Thank you Ruby, I needed to read and see your response in print. I want and need the surgery asap, because i have been taking 1 pain pill every six hours in the beginning, now I’m up to 3 every six hours, that’s why I’m anxious to get the surgery done quickly. You’re right I have to watch the intake of pain killers before it hurts my liver and kidneys. But if I don’t take them Ruby, I can’t eat, then I become dehydrated and potassium drops.

    Lola, you know I have to add my two cents. I believe things happen for some reason. Sometimes, we never know what that reason is. Just last night I told a friend who was concerned about a physical issue that fear and faith can not exist in the same space. Easy for me to say when I’m not in your shoes. Just keep your chin up as all is as it should be. My prayers continue to support you in your time of need or just because you are a child of God.

    Jean H. I was told that if you do your physical therapy faithfully and with a lot of work, that it would be better for you/me. The physical therapy although painful would help you if you stick with it. I hope you are, and I’m sorry about your husband. Wish we could talk on a one on one, as this subject is irrelevant to the Amazing child pianist. Sorry about that, but I really need to talk about this as I’m alone and terrified about the surgery. Sorry posters, didn’t mean to take the attraction away from this wonderful child. I need to figure a way to talk without giving out my name. ADMIN, ANY SUGGESTIONS, OR COULD YOU FORWARD MY E-MAIL ADDRESS TO JEAN H FOR ME? Is that okay with you Jean H.? Please advise.

      ADMIN, as you can see, this is me, Liz, and I’d like you to PLEASE share my email address with Lola, also. Thank you, IN ADVANCE, for doing so.
      Lola, I’m soooo sorry that you have been treated in such an unChristlike way. If I can get your address, once we can really “talk”, either by phone or email, I hopefully will be able to find a Bishop in your area, and try to arrange some help for you. If you were in my area, I have no doubt that we could help you with some of your needs. I also think I remember you saying you were 65, or thereabouts, and I was wondering if there is a senior center in your area, who could hook you up with home help care. Can’t your insurance get you some home nursing, and rehab help? Can’t your doctor and/or the hospital arrange some home help post-op? Since you have some time before your surgery, you have time to try to find the help you needs.
      Suzanna, I do have a facebook account, but haven’t figured out how to use it! I tried to write to a friend, but couldn’t figure out how to “send” it, so my friend never did receive it! Not my idea of good! Hopefully our “ADMIN” will help so Lola and I can talk.

        @ JeanH, Lola & Liz- if ya’ll don’t mind me doing so I will forfeit my name & email address. If ya’ll write me (all of you) I can simply pass all of your email addresses to the ya’ll & it will not be given out to anyone else- I promise! Just be sure to put the subject of KNEE SURGERY so I know who it’s coming from–so here goes

        [email protected]–Suzanna

        I don’t open emails unless I know who it is anyway
        Just my way of trying to help

    Lola–do you have a Facebook account? If so maybe she could write u there? But then again that would mean you’d have to put your last name on here- unless if you do have a Facebook account you could make a comment in the Facebook commentary up top. Just an idea
