My mum did a summersault on a pine cone outside the front door when she came to visit and now has one of those babies fitted thanks to Grenoble Hospital. It goes with her bionic knee. She doesn’t ski though - although maybe she should?
I had the op in October 2008 when I realised could no longer ski and the physio wasn’t helping anymore. No skiing last season on the advice of my surgeon, just lots of physio to rebuild stability. I am heading out to Engelberg next week though. That will be the first time I’ve skied on the new hip so wish me luck…
I became bionic late summer 2003, 4 mnths later ploughing the powders again.... felt like miraculous rebirth.... these were the happiest moments of my life.... everlasting thanks, doc (Dr. Desmet, Ghent, Belgium)
