Richard L. Provencher

Thank you, PT. I am not one to complain, yet being a typical male I sometimes whimper a little too much. My wife, Esther, is very understanding even after almost 38 years. My hernia began to bother me a lot, then the operation five weeks ago, then the staples out and not being allowed to lift anything over five pounds, push, drive, twist, etc. since the operation was on my tummy. Now my knee has arthritis and is it ever sore---each step is bone on bone since my cartilage is damaged or worn out at my age a month away from my 70th. I am slated for physio in the near future but don't know what that will do other than a knee operation which I do not want to even think about. It has affected my writing output. But I still manage to enjoy creating a poem each two days and only hope they are interesting enough to read. Please keep me in your prayers. All the best from both of us. R and E.
