Re: No shopping channels in hospital on TV

Wishing you a speedy recovery! I work in a hospital but I didn't know that hip replacement patients were in and out so fast. That's good to hear, because you never know what's around that corner....lol

Re: No shopping channels in hospital on TV

Hi gazelle77

I think those nurses underestimate the will of their patients and maybe the effects of the meds they are given while under their care. Or, heaven forbid, maybe it is only 1 gender they think might have this type of problem when sedated or "under the influence" :-) In all the weeks I spent there I didn't order 1 single item and I watched lot's of electronic shows(my weakness at times).

Spent week after week after week in my 2nd home, the hospital, and this one has all 3 shopping networks available to view. I am talking about the last 12 years now, not just 1 or 2 years. The other 2 hospitals I was in for a few days, 1 of them had all 3 and the other had only HSN.

Sounds like things went well for you and I am very happy to hear that you were up and about and took a spin with your walker. Keep working and you will be just fine with this.

My best to you and an may your recovery from this surgery be as smooth as?

You are on my ignore Skylands....I figure why open whatever you said on this thread as you never say anything nice....as per your post on my thread about tripping and denial. Why do you like to post on my threads at all? I am sure what you posted here is just like the other post.

Re: No shopping channels in hospital on TV

Oh Gazelle, I am sorry I just saw this thread now!!! Hope everything is going fine with you!!! My DH had a hip replacement about 12 years ago just before they started doing then with the little incisions (which I assume you had). He has done well and you would never know he had a hip replacement, tennis, golf, biking, etc.!!!

You will be so happy you had this done!!! I hope your recovery goes well!!!!
