Well Mom is now in her room and getting settled in. Once I saw that they had her taken acre of and she got ready to settle down for the night, I left her there with my step-dad, so I could come back to the room and take the dog to do "his business" outside and things like that. We've been up since 4 this morning, so I'm absolutely whipped, not to mention that I've been up for two weeks not sleeping because I was worried. It's a good thing for all of the RC guys though, because while I wasn't sleeping I was up designing and testing my new line of RC parts.
I told Mom about the AMAZING respsonse that I got from you guys, and she asked me to please tell each and every one of you that she thanks you from the bottom of her heart. Because of all of the prayers and the care that you guys put into this, the operation went off without a hitch, and the doc said that this was one of his best operations yet, and it was even the quickest one that he's done because everything went to smoothly. Mom didn't think it was smooth when she was hitting the paint button every 15 seconds (it will only dispense every 10 minutes, so she kept telling them that her "fuel line" was kinked or needed a new filter. I wonder why I'm such a gearhead? The doc even asked her for her permission to use the "after" x-ray in a text book that he's writing on this certain medical procedure, because its the best example of a "picture perfect" knee replacement when you look at the placement of the synthetic parts.
Once again, thank you to all the members that gave me your full support throughout this entire ordeal. There's no question in my mind about why this is the best internet forum there is, period.
