<p><span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; color: black;"><span style="font-size: small;">For those of you who may or may not know, I was knocked down in 1988 which resulted in traumatic perthes disease. Any way to cut a very long story short, I got my hip replacement on November 10th in Musgrave Park Hospital. Before the operation I couldn’t walk 1 mile without any pain & discomfort. </span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; color: black; font-size: 8pt;"><span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; color: black;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; color: black;"><span style="font-size: small;">With my 'new hip' my life has been transformed which now empowers me to do more with something that we all take for granted!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So, what is he on about, I hear you say... well..</span></span></p>
