Glad your dad is recovering Zack.🙏 I'm sure he will do fine. I was playing golf 2 months after mine.

Thanks Bob, I appreciate it & he does too. It's good to hear from someone who has been there. It's taking a little longer than he wanted & he's going a little stir crazy around the house. (I'm sure you know what he's feeling)
One issue now that his hip is healing up right the rest of his leg is having to go back to a normal position/setting that it hasn't been in years. His knees are having to adjust back to carry the weight properly.

He had a bad motorcycle wreck years ago & it's still an issue. He got T-boned & almost lost his life then. He wound up loosing over two inches of bone on the one leg that took the impact. I'll never forget, out of three other doctors who wanted to just amputate the leg off, only Dr. Constable was willing to go the extra mile & put in the work to save it. She knew how important it was to him & us for that matter that he stayed whole & kept all his parts.
Long story short after several surgeries & splicing other bones from his other leg/hip/ect. She saved the leg other doctors were just willing to just write off & take the easy option. I'll always be grateful for her thoughtfulness & skill to do what she did.

Anyways, enough talk of past troubles.
I can't explain how happy I am to see him walking around better than he has in years.

On a positive note, I mentioned before that my sister is expecting a boy here soon. In approximately the next two weeks as a matter of fact. So I'm going to be an uncle & my dad is going to be a grandfather for the first time. I got him a little something to celebrate the occasion 😁

Beautiful EO.

One point on hip. He should not let up on therapy. I still do my stretching and band exercises.

Congrats to the family. Your father will be ready to chase him around in no time.

Thanks, I know he's going to agree, on all points 😉
As for the therapy, yes he hasn't let up an any of it. Unfortunately he has plenty of experience in that area. He's eager to get back up & going, especially for the future young'un 👍

Visiting my parents today, checking up on my dad & seeing how he's doing after his hip surgery. He's getting along great & back on track. Better than he was already & its only been a few weeks.
Felt like a good day for some two tone ebony 😉
