Hip Surgery Vlog

AKrunner907

So I have posted here several times about my upcoming surgery but I’ll remind those that haven’t read them, that I have Anterior THA surgery on Monday the 15th using titanium/ceramic/polyethylene. I started a vlog series on my YouTube channel called “Hip Life” that follows me through the entire process from diagnosis, through the presurgery check-ups/process and will go through surgery and follow me through rehab , PT and recovery. If Brother Tom will allow me to share the link here for people who would like to watch my progress and get ideas about what their surgery experience will be and for those that have gone through the surgery themselves and care to comment or offer advice of their own for me. Thanks!

      That’s awesome AK and would love to see it and follow it! Hoping and praying your experience goes well and that the lessons learned can help prepare others!
      For me – 53 days today post-op: 4.3 miles in 50 min…pain free and comfortable 👍

      Once you enter that operating room, things change and the new path begins! Stay positive!

      Hi Chris,

      Just popping in to wish you good luck and fast healing on your surgery tomorrow.

      I watched a few of your videos. My ex was an Anchorage native, and I had in-laws in Anchorage and Fairbanks. I’ve been there many times, but none in the years since we got divorced. It was nice to see it again. Thanks for sharing.

      Good luck tomorrow!

      Keep your head up and remember that everyone heals differently! Don’t get down on yourself and be patient.

      Would love to check out your vlog. Will bounce over to YouTube to check it out.

      Best
      Jonathan

        I’ve noticed a commonality among everybody I talk to about this surgery, patience. Patience is the key, I’m focusing on that right now. Thank you.
