. . . but it's our Mount Everest. Will (Bionic Orange), is 10 months post-op, and hiked 4000 feet in a couple of hours return. He left me in the dust (or snow to be more accurate). We couldn't do the entire 8500 feet due to snow pack. We will try again when it's melted in the fall. Thank you all for inspiring Will pre-op. We'd like to return the favour and that's why I have posted. (He is on the shy and humble side).
The surgery last August truly seems like a lifetime ago.
