After ~25 years of limping & pain, nana Noma had her right knee replaced (with a titanium one) on Friday. It's incredibly painful, partially because of the surgery itself, and partially because her knee is straight now for the first time in a quarter century (and all the muscles have to adjust to their new "normal" position). She had the surgery on Friday afternoon, and PT showed up at 4:00am on Saturday morning to get her up & walking (with a walker). As long as she doesn't twist it she can't hurt it, but boy is it hurting her at this point!
