I guess she won't be disproving the adage that "middle-aged white women can't jump" at the local amateur 2 on 2 basketball tourney, eh? I tried teaching her tennis way back when we were first married, but her depth-perception is just off enough that managing to hit the ball was always a real challenge, and particularly the way her hip has felt for several years, running was already out of the question. Some days, she was doing good to just be able to walk (that was easier to understand when we saw the last x-ray they took before the surgery, and could see the femur almost all the way out of the hip socket).
She does have good bone density, and one of the last x-rays taken after the surgery showed excellent bonding between the bone and the prosthesis.
I might have more trouble diving with my beard than she will have with her hip.
