I don’t do personal blogging as much as I used to (no need to thank me; your look of dewy-eyed gratitude is thanks enough). But I got medical news today which you have a right to know, since it’ll probably affect my posting.
I saw an orthopedist, and they did an MRI (just like on TV!). Turns out I have a condition called “osteonecrosis.” In other words, some of my bone, specifically the balls of my hip joints, is dying. This is a condition most common in people who’ve abused steroids, of whom I am most decidedly not one. At least one hip replacement appears to be in my immediate future. I’ll be seeing a surgeon soon.
Prayers appreciated.
I’m sorry to hear this. I hope your insurance is good for it.
Darn, Lars. So sorry to hear this! I’ll pray for you. Keep fighting, just like Paul did.
Ach! So sorry, Lars. The absence of the usual causes must be particularly frustrating. Please keep your fans informed as to your progress as you pursue treatment/surgery.
You’ll be getting prayer from North Carolina, too.
Praying
I guess this means you are part of the Hip Generation. I’ll be praying for you.
I’m praying for you.
I’ll be praying as well. Updates are a great tacit reminder to keep praying.
Will also be praying!
