Default trauma

Most interesting post Sebbie and I am sure your maintained optimism is pulling you through gradual but good recovery.

The ball and socket of the femur is well known to surgeons as a problem area in falls but you indicate a complete healing of the bone and subsequent ability to go on the rowing machine again without pain. I should be very interested to hear therefore what the surgeon said about your synovial membrane - you seem to be lucky with that remaining intact when arthritis otherwise results for so many if artificial replacement surgery is not undertaken.

LOL - I also read this as an anatomy lesson as I had always wondered where is the little valve which says urine or semen shall pass along the urethra.
