I'm going to the gym now in anticipation of knee surgery next month - the more "in shape" it is ahead of time, the easier the recuperation will be. And I'm working on a buddy system since an old friend moved back to town. Susan, are you to the point of being able to get into the pool again and exercise? I haven't set up a kit for the pool at this place yet, but I'm told that once the bandage is off and pool access is cleared that's the best exercise for the knee (no weight).

Have Hardy drop in an update if you can't get to the phone or computer yourself. (And in this political season I seeing miss your pointed posts on Facebook.)
