Hi Jenni, Glad to hear you are happy, is the brace instead of a knee replacement, I'm not sure what you meant. It's about time you had a reprieve from pain. Hope you get things sorted from the pain team and get home to your family this weekend. Lots of love Lorna xx

I really hope the brace helps you to function whilst you are waiting for the operation and that you can return home soon.
Good luck Jenni from Naomi X

So pleased to hear your news Jenni, absolutely brilliant. Thank goodness we have the support of NRAS where would we be without them !!
The knee brace sounds very fetching, will be checking it out in a minute on the other channel.
Its good that you can now get on the steroids, I don t know where we would be without them at times. Hope the pain specialists get that side of it sorted so that you can get back home again very soon.

This is absolutely wonderful news, Jenni. If Ailsa can't do it, no-one can. God wont let the drug door close for you.
I am expecting to hear you've been thrown out in your nighty and sexy leg brace very early in the morning if you keep everyone awake singing again tonight - would love to hear you!! Much love xxxxxx

You need to get some tassels on that leg brace Jenni! And maybe some coloured lights to tart it up.  Hope you can get home soon. Love and hugs, Doreen xx

Jenni That is much better news. You always have the right idea, a bit of positivity goes a long way. Love the brace and am quite jealous. Glad you got the steroids and hope that they let you escape by the weekend. Your time before the knee replacement will fly. Get Christmas over with and you will be well on the way. I had mine done in January and it was not a brilliant month for people getting through snow to visit the hospital and also I was freezing when I came out and then it was a very dicey time getting to physio every week with ice on the ground. I think you said about six months which will just take you into the Spring and then you can be renewed as well Take care Jackie xx

Hi Jenni Very positive news all round Looking forward to seeing your brace 'revisions'; couldn't they find anything to match the red boots? Fingers crossed for a weekend escape. Do you need the escape committee at the ready? We're all eager to get on our way south! No climbing out of windows before we arrive Lyn x
