Skiing

Since the worn out
knee should be replaced,
I have no doubt,
in fact, I’ve squarely faced:
not a snowball’s chance in hell
going skiing would go too well.

I have a friend who has had both knees replaced. She says she wishes she would have done it sooner. She gets along better than I do with arthritis is my ankles.

My brother had a knee replacement. Although his pain subsided he later found out after surgery that he couldn't run. Big disappointment for him and I would imagine if you love skiing it was for you too. Thanks for sharing Jeff...

Yes, I miss long distance running on trails the most, but I get to hike and that's pretty close. We actually haven't skied in many years, but I don't think that's something I'd want to try at this point. Thanks for the read and comment, Michael!
