This is awful, Jerry! To wait this long for first a proper diagnosis and then even longer for the hip replacement. My cousin had to wait two years for his but his life is much better now. At least he is pain-free. They shouldn't screw around with the veterans. You guys served your country they should take care of you!
Knowing that there is an end in sight, and during all this
I've learned what to do and what not to do, so I'm
Actually getting around (for the most part)
With a lot less pain than in the Spring
When I knew what the issue was
But the VA was disagreeing
With me. That period
Of time was pure
Agony for me.
