haven't been around...

So sorry, kids... but my news is that short story, on the x-ray, it looks like a bomb went off on my right hip, which explains why my leg keeps getting shorter. We're now 3" up and it took them a year to figure this out. Whatever. They're going to do a hip replacement in early June, and I'll have some hospital time, then rehab facility for some weeks. And one of my boyfriends broke up with me in a cruel way, and that didn't sit well. But off I go to surgery.

Somehow they never figured out that one of my legs was a bit shorter than the other. This screwed up my gait. But what can one do? Best of luck with the surgery.

Thanks, Chris! My physical therapist wants me to get a built-up sole for my shoe (I thought of this first, as my husband had his shoes modified by cobblers to have a built up section), and my first pass at my not-so-good-at-English guy resulted in a .25" new sole, not the 1.5" I asked for. We slog on. :-)

Yay that they finally figured out what to do about it. I hope all goes well and you have a speedy recovery.
