she seems to be hanging in there!

I had my right elbow replaced in 1994.  It has loosened and caused me
to fracture my humerus.  Does anyone know if replacing elbow
prothesises is very successful?  Once the fracture is cured the doc
wants me to replace the elbow again.  I'm concerned about this

Pardon me if this has been covered (I've cross posted this to the

with no luck.  I figured you all are experts at joint pain so I

Well, things are starting to come together. We've covered just about every
inch of walls with pictures and sayings. We only have about 30 boxes left to
