Daughter’s surgery went well, Labrium was pretty much torn free of the hip joint, chips in socket, and tendon needed repair.
All done via Ortho, a tad over two hours. No major problems, and she’s got a video of it. They had to put a plastic screw into the hip joint to re-attach the labrium and stitches that look like tie wraps 🙂
(She WILL get kidded about that)
Got her home and resting (not necessarily comfortably), but resting…
Next couple of days will be the real issue, worry about infection and fever, and being able to mitigate the pain correctly. Thanks for the thoughts and prayers…

Good to hear! I hope the next days are smooth!
Ditto that.
Thanks for the update. She will be safer at home healing then at the hospital!
It’s amazing what medicine can do these days. Best wishes for a speedy recovery!
At least she has a nice new deck to recuperate on.
Good to hear she is home.
And I thought I had it bad in the pain department! I wish well, and I will raise a glass to a speedy recovery.
Wow! Prayers for continued healing
Prayers for healing on the way.
We’ll be keeping y’all in our prayers.
That’s good to hear. I hope she recovers fast and as painlessly as possible.
Prayers for a quick recovery!
It’s amazing what can be done surgically these days to make our lives more enjoyable and livable. You and your daughter are in my prayers for a swift and sweet recovery. I can so appreciate what she’s going through, having had multiple bilateral total hip replacements myself, beginning at the age of nineteen years old. May your daughter’s surgery and recovery be a total and complete success!
Hope all goes well with the daughter. Are you bringing the dog home with you?
Thoughts and best wishes. It’s good she has you there to help.
Thanks all, will pass the good wishes along to her, and NO the dog stays… I’m gone to much to be able to actually have a dog of any size where I live… I just get to ‘enjoy’ the pup when I visit.
Prayers and good thoughts her and your way!

I’ll add my good wishes for your daughter’s recovery to those of everyone else. May she be back to 100% ASAP and wrapping you around her little finger, where dads belong…;)
Glad for you.
