My hospital adventure
On Wednesday night, I managed to dislocate my hip replacement. I could hear it pop as I tried to stand up, then I fell down. My kind neighbors called an ambulance and I spent that night in the emergency room. I am smiling here because the position of my leg was so absurd. I didn't feel pain as long as I didn't move. They gave me lots of painkillers and sedatives and tried to pop it back in. The next day an orthopedist finally got it back. They kept me another night as a precaution, and then I got to come home yesterday afternoon. I still have pain but lots of meds and people to help out. I'm doing a lot of sleeping, too.
