Shoulder surgery last yr went fine. This yr it was a total knee replacement of my right knee. Healing well and getting back to getting aroundwith a cane. Plus I pinched the sciatic nerve in my left hip. Now that has been a problem. But am getting better and taking it easy. I too lost alot of my roses with the fact that I couldn't get out and care for them and we had a bad winter with lots of snow. Once the ones left bloom I'll see what I have left. I have some friends that moved in with me to help me during my recovery and they are working to fix my garden up and other problems I have around the the trailer in exchange for rent. They are a great help and good friends.
