That my height would end up costing me, and I would end up with back pain. So far this has not come to pass more then a couple times, but I can see it coming.
Maybe when I am your age, and am one of the few that can remember the 1988 presidential race like you can remember Lincoln's inauguration I will end up in your current situation. :-)
As others have said, take it easy on the recovery, let your darling wife do the heavy lifting for a few months.
I wish you the very best outcome possible.
Oh, and don't allow the pain to get out of hand, the nurses are NOT kidding when they say that you need to stay ahead of the pain. You can not allow pain to build, and then knock it back down as easily as you can keep it at bay from the beginning with the right meds. Pain slows healing, as I have been warned more then once.
Good luck!
Eric
