The first two weeks at home I was under the influence of severe painkillers. My wife had to unbox everything and place it for me (no lifting anything more than 3-5 pounds). As you can imagine not the best circumstances for reviewing gear. This resulted in 10 days in the hospital, a failed attempt to remove it, and turning me into a human pin cushion! Lo and behold, they sewed me up and 5 days after the surgery they sent me home for two months of recovery, with two drain lines, a pic line that served to deliver the 24/7 antibiotic drip to kill the sepsis and other infections, to wait for the second surgery which with I, thankfully, have been spared, for now. I was going gangbusters after two weeks of therapy and care when all of a sudden my gallbladder decided to take a dump. On May 20th I had to undergo a complete left knee replacement after micro fracture surgery failed to correct the issues. I should note here that the timing could not have been worse. I was pleased to get a chance to review more modern offerings from the venerable product line.
