I am not really asking for advice. I just thought this was something that most people had not even heard of. I know I have not.
Plus I am sure the doctor will talk to him a lot more and answer all of his questions before they decide on surgery. Dad has to go back after a month of physical therapy.
A lot of people my fathers age might not even risk surgery as long as they can still use their arm at all. My mom has some heart problems and I know she would not risk going under anesthetics if she could avoid it at all.
Even though my dad will have to cut back on his activities he will still be very active. He told me that he can still use a chain saw as longs as he doesn't have to lift it very high. I told him he was crazy.
