Most folks hate conflict - so it's unlikely they'll say anything. Unless pushed.
Mother had a total hip replacement in August - it took longer, and was more difficult. But it was also more intensive. The hip is more problematic, because you can't drive at all - when it's out. Knee you can actually move around on, and more mobile.
She was immobile for all of 2021, until they did a total hip conversion replacement - they had to remove a rod that had been put in previously. Age also may be a factor? Mother is turning 80 this year. We figure the knee will be healed by July.
