- Dr. Tim only needed 5 inches to install my new hip.
The day finally came to change the dressing on the wound. Everyone got their first look at the size of the cut that was needed to insert the new bionic hip. Now that is what you call “minimally invasive”. Stitches were used underneath the skin but glue was used on the outer skin layer.
Tom,
Enjoying your blog and summaries of your experience. Looking forward to reading more as healing progresses. Glad all is going well for you and your surgery was successful. Your positive attitude is inspiring to all of us! You can count on me to help out at second seed again this year. Just let me know what you need and when.
I’m slowly rounding back into running form after struggling with my achilles tendon last year. Looking forward to meeting you out on the road or while training with the “Spokane distance project.”
All my best to you,
Wayne Ristau
Hey Wayne. Thanks for the kind words. I’ve got you locked in (for life) to help out with Bloomsday 2nd Seed no worries there. Glad to hear that you are getting back into running. I’m looking forward to getting back with the SDP.
Tom.
