Best of luck Bill. Will remember you in my prayers for a quick recovery. My mother has had both knees done and still works a garden. She'll turn 90 in December. Woody is a real work of art. Thanks for your contribution. Mike

Mr Sontag; prayers for a good recovery. Fred, Mr Sontag is 87 and completed Woody several years ago, he was in his 80's (or close to) when he completed Woody? That is great. Thanks for sharing. Herb

Fred, Pass on all our good wishes and prayers and tell Bill that therapy might seem tough at first but it gets easier as you go and is well worth the effort. Charlie

Fred, tell the young guy good luck, and a speedy recovery! I sure will do all that I can, to take the trip for the "open house", to meet you, see "Woody", and meet that FINE GENTLEMAN in person!

P.S. not sure of the date, BUT I was around 40 years old, (about 9 years ago), when I was told the only thing to cure the knee, replace! They said 5 years MAX. on a replacement. Still on the original I was born with! THANK GOD for the anti-stuff! LOL
