This was taken the other day skiing at Durango Mountain
Resort...We had gotten over 22" inches of snow. The skiing this year has
been nothing short of "epic." I am able to ski all the runs I used to ski
before my hip began to really hurt about 6 years ago. I had my hip
resurfaced by Dr. Gross on 9/6/06. I waited the full year before skiing
again. It was my decision to do that. I now ski at least 3 times a week and
everything feels as normal as before my hip ever started hurting. I just
don't pound the bumps anymore. Not because of the hip, but because after 30
years of skiing I want to save my knees! Life is good with the new hip...Thanx
for creating this site Pat.....
