A Couple Of Finds And A Note OF Thanks

[Bell-Two]

Here is a short video of last few hunts before I go into surgery Wed Feb 15th for a hip replacement. Clips are of finding silver quarter and old token and a view of winter coming into the Ohio Valley. Also pictured is a lightning rod insulator it looks as if it went through a fire...or pehaps deflected a lightning strike. These are found quite often around older home sites, this is the second one I have found that still had glass in it, I have found several of the metal holders without the glass. Thank everyone who has expressed their concerns and best wishes for my recovery I have felt everyone of those expressions and feel covered by your prayers!

Congrats on a good hunt and here's wishing you a quick recovery. I just finished with my rehab after shoulder surgery so I know the feeling. Remember to take it easy coming back and listen to your therapist, good luck.

Good luck with your surgery Bell-two. I just went through the same thing, only mine was a half. I snapped my leg bone so they gave me a new ball and about 6 inches of steel rod in my leg. Just take your time and do the exercises that they give you. You will be good to go very soon. I had the operation January 6th, and the docs told me I can be out tectin by the end of June, although I think I'm gonna move it up alittle. Let us know how you make out, and be careful.

WOW..hip replacement doesn't sound too fun. I hope your surgery goes well and your recovery is quick!! Hopefully your doc will agree that MDing is better than seeing a therapist.

...and here i was feeling sorry for myself after going through recent carpal tunnel surgery on both hands.. :rolleyes:

Well carpal tunnel surgery is no piece of cake either, my friend Terry aka Goes4ever had it done on his right hand and I know he had a lot of pain with it doing rehab. I hope you are getting better soon. I should be able to resume MDing as soon as I finish rehab of course with special precautions.

All the best for a speedy recovery. Mind your orthopedic surgeon's instructions for post op :angelic:precautions. One of the few times I can actually say to someone I know EXACTLY what you are going through. Having had both hips replaced 2 1/2 years apart it gave me back my ability / mobility.
Oh yeah, really nice finds from your last digs. I really like tokens, often fun to research them.

I hope that your surgery went well and that you're already on the road to recovery, Tony! They are doing wonders with this type of procedure these days, and the recovery time seems to be reasonable. I'm sure you will be back out there making great finds and videos in no time!
