I have submitted them to my disability case worker for reimbursement. It has been a really smooth process this time.

The surgery to replace my right knee is on April 24th 2026. The time I spend at the hotel gives time for the pain I experience from traveling to subside. This way I am back to my baseli https://rons-home.net/en/blog/read/3358 2026-04-20 18:50:00+00 https://rons-home.net/en/blog/read/3357 I have been thinking. My left knee joint has continued to deteriorate since the appointment I had with my surgeon on March 23rd 2026. It is now worse than the knee joint being replaced. I have found it particularly hard trying to control the naus https://rons-home.net/en/blog/read/3357 2026-04-20 13:29:00+00 https://rons-home.net/en/blog/read/3356 The pain in my knees has been especially bad during the past 24 hours. I have experienced nausea from the pain for somewhere between 8 and 12 hours. I lost track.

At this moment the outcome hasn't been determined. I had blood work done on April 10th 2026. I am fighting an infection. To be clear the infection isn https://rons-home.net/en/blog/read/3354 2026-04-15 16:13:00+00 https://rons-home.net/en/blog/read/3353 https://rons-home.net/en/blog/read/3353 2026-04-15 13:10:00+00 https://rons-home.net/en/blog/read/3352 https://rons-home.net/en/blog/read/3352 2026-04-15 08:01:00+00 https://rons-home.net/en/blog/read/3351 https://rons-home.net/en/blog/read/3351 2026-04-14 22:25:00+00 https://rons-home.net/en/blog/read/3350 I went back to Home Depot. Attempt #1 to make a knee slider board hasn't worked. But I learned a whole lot. I simply needed wood to complete attempt #2. I anticipate this working.

I've talked to him previously about my hip surgery. But since it was hip revision surgery all that was needed was a discussion about my outpatient physiotherapy.
