Hip surgery and recovery

Donation protected
Update: Surgery was June 9th. Went a little longer than originally planned, and had to stay in recovery for a couple hours so they could have me walk. Walking on it feels so woerd, Steven thinks it's just because I've manipulated the way I have walked the past year lol but I do feel taller. Pain is a lot worse than I had anticipated, I'm not sure if it's because the incision is bigger or what, but I thought I would be more dependent, and that's not the case. Steven has to help me up and down into bed, to the bathroom, and anywhere and everywhere I want to go. I'm limited on my movement, per the doctors instructions, but every if I was able, I don't think I could. Thank you all for prayers, checking on me and my family, and for the donations. Anything and everything will help and is super appreciated so blessed to have such amazing family and friends

Last year I was misdiagnosed by our hospital. They told me I had sciatica, refused to do an xray, had me go to a chiropractor, shoved many different medications at me to get me to go away, and when I finally got a doctor to do an xray, I found out it was broken. I was rushed to Loma Linda for emergency surgery. The doctors tried to save my hip but I recently found out the surgery was unsuccessful and my only option is to have a total hip replacement which is scheduled for June 9th. The doctors say I will be out of work for 3 months as of now. Depending how I heal, I may be able to return to work sooner. I have lost some mobility in my left leg, in pain daily, and hoping this surgery will make me feel more like me again and ease the pain. Although I will be receiving part of my income, I'll still be taking a financial hit. Traveling back and forth for doctor visits, staying in a hotel, and being able to get food is costly as well. Any little bit helps.
