And here we are again.
Hopefully this time will be the charm.
5 months of fighting an infection in the new knee and we were losing.
So today they did an explant.
Removed all the components of the joint.
He now has a temporary spacer and in 6 weeks to 3 months we will
return for the knee implant.
Prayers that all will go well! Stay safe and well.
ReplyDeleteHello~
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry!! I know someone else who had to go through the exact thing and he's doing great now...but it does get discouraging. You will be in my prayers for a quick and complete recovery. Stay well and keep smiling.
Hugs and Love,
Barb
