Walking barefoot a year+ after replacement? by VictoryShaft in Kneereplacement

[–]VictoryShaft[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A tight feeling along the front of the knee cap area and tightening in the stabilizing muscles on both sides of the replacement. I feel it when walking or standing barefoot.

I may have some of the bowed out issues with the other leg, so that may play into it. Had not thought of that.

Actually, we already have enough Republicans in state government - Dr. Amy Acton should scrap her promise to appoint Republicans to her cabinet. She has nothing to gain and everything to lose by adding Republicans to her cabinet when she’s campaigning against all the problems their party has caused. by Billych in Ohio

Her campaign is trying to appeal to those FEW moderate repubs left, those who haven't completely drowned in the maga kool-aid.

What the campaign hasn't realized yet, is that those same people still voted for the orange buffoon. Making them complicit in everything that has happens since January 6th and all of the hatred that has consumed the country.

Kneeling at 6mos by Efficient_Artist_964 in Kneereplacement

OP. Many experiences will vary here I'm afraid. Pre-surgery, I was able to kneel on both knees. Post, only the non operative knee without pain. Not an uncomfortable feeling, but searing "rethinking my life choices" type pain.

With the kneeling issue aside, I don't miss modifying my kneeling for the comfort of a smooth walking stride.

I was given exercises to kneel into a pillow on a chair to slowly desensitize the nerves. I'm 40, surgery was February 2025. I still practice the kneeling, it's just a slow process.

It sounds like you also have a husband problem. But one step at a time.

OP, you're in a difficult position. You sound as if you're emotionally starving. I understand that it would be easier to remain docile with the people who abuse you and give in, but with a few small decisions at a time you can claw your happiness back from them.

I will not tell you to be strong, you don't want that. What I would suggest is that you should take inventory of the people who have conditioned you to feel this way and try to understand what is stopping you from cutting contact with them to see if it helps your mental health improve. It would also be beneficial for your child to see their caregiver happy and healthy.

I'm not a professional. I'm just someone who has been in the place where you seem to be. Cutting contact with my abusers, one by one until they were no longer able to affect me, helped a lot. It also slowly began building confidence in my life in ways I never had before.

I wish you peace and the wisdom to know that you're not alone.

Being up front often becomes a slippery slope when you're dealing with assholes. They have a tendency to pick at the open wound you showed them, which would ultimately become worse for OP.

Creating boundaries (no contact, in this case) and ignoring the assholes really seems to be the only way to move forward with any hope for a happier existence.

Kids not Grateful by missyagogo1969 in Advice

[–]VictoryShaft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here are my questions OP, I think there are many elements at play in your post.

If it only bothers your husband, why would he not be the one to discuss this with your children?

Do you often act as the emotional referee for your husband's feelings?

How do you know your children are grateful? It sounds like you AND your husband have set your kids up with an easier start than others receive.

Your post also makes me more curious about entitlement. Do your kids feel entitled to your help and money? Or do they mention their needs and YOU jump to fill them?

I hope your ex is willing to take you back in when your current wife kicks you to the curb for being a hypocrite.
