Hoping the new joint feels foreign for a week and yours forever after.
New Wishes
A handful of wishes pulled from the cabinet this morning. Pick one up — copy, save it to your pinboard, or send it on.
May your PT sessions reveal progress you didn't know you'd made.
Wishing you a clean incision, easy mobility, and predictable check-ups.
The bionic chapter begins — wear it with low-key pride.
May the cane retire sooner than expected.
Sending well wishes for the boring middle stretch nobody warns you about.
