Default Tom S' new kicker!
Please wish member Tom S a quick and easy recovery. He had a brand new, shiny knee installed today. It was either that, or convert all of his cars to automatic.

Brother in Law had a knee replaced. Once he was thru the recovery stage,
he was back to playing golf again. He always used a golf cart even before the surgery.
Heal fast Tom.

Tom, been there; done that. Just do what your physical therapist tells you and you will do well. I wish I’d had mine replaced two years before I did.
