thank you for your kind thoughts ... I spent 5 days in hospital being spoiled by pretty nurses, but came home Monday night, and reality set in ... got the full knee replacement, Dr. said my knee was crushed (been hobbling around on it for two years) ... damn, it HURTS ! ... when I'm feeling better, I'm gonna go to the Mall, where all those geriatric ladies do their walking on new knees, (then, I'm gonna trip them) ... they make it look so easy and painless, I'm just a big wuss ... starting to get over all the morphine painkillers they gave me, that were making me sick (I did take a dozen 'special recipe' oatmeal cookies in with me, they kept me smiling) ... every time I was asked what medicines I am using, I would include the marijuana on the list ... almost all of the doctors and nurses were agreeable to MJ, or were at least, curious ... most nurses said lots of patients here are med-users, and they have seen very favorable results with it ... too bad they aren't running for office ...
