a :huddle: 'round u for support ... little wolf.
i lived with sevre degenerative osteo arthritis (spelling is off) in my right hip for 23 years ... at 16 i took myself of the pain pills, i was worried one day i would take too many at a time ... trying to dull the pain. so i learned to live with that pain till i was 33 and it couldn't take the pain any more and i could barely walk anymore. so off to my dr. and that was when he and i knew that it was time for a total hip replacement @ the age of 33 ... not something to be done when we are so young, but it was ... now @ 35 ... i walk better now - then "ever" in my life, i even shmile when i catch this fluffly lil' eskimo "running" ... cause after all the pain ... i never knew i'd run or even walk for a long period of time again. the point is ... pain is some thing we understand - in what ever shape in comes in to our lives and well ... i wish to give u support as you adjust to this and i truly hope that you will find comfort ... as best you can ... :Thumbs
