I like the ending. Interesting idea of making light of a bad situation and then making the best of it. It had some witty moments in it. Good luck. Thanks for sharing.

Smiles all around, Mystery Writer!
What a testimony to your perseverance, resolve, and faith!
I know a bit of what you experienced = two total knee replacements due to arthritis. Pool therapy = a godsend!
Your poem flows well, and leaves the reader cheering you onward!
Best Wishes!

Your words are uplifting and I admire your perseverance. It gives the reader much to think about. I admire your use of rhyming words and you have a strong steady beat that makes this a poem to read out loud.

I like this rhymed narrative poem with the whole storyline. Maybe other readers pointed out there was no rhyming line for "the infection ruined my hips" but that is all to fix.

Comment from Susan Louise Gabriel
Oh what a cute poem about a serious subject. I really liked the way you added humor to what could have been a very sad situation, which is how I imagine you tackled your problem - with humor, grit and determination. Your personality comes shining through (I'm assuming when you wrote it in first person, you were talking about yourself). And it's an inspirational piece!
Well done.

Comment from royowen
Sounds like you did better than fair, you did brilliantly, but whatever the doctor's can do it's nothing compared to what God can do, so raise those hands give thanks and accept that wonderful gift, beautifully written, quite hilarious and entertaining. Great rhyming, and lovely narrative, Good luck, blessing Roy

Comment from Mary Vigasin
First congratulations on success and your determination to "get back to normal"
While a very serious subject, there is a lightness in your words that give your reader not only hope but to cheer you on as you take on your challenge. Also while you told your story in rhythm, you earned your readers admiration.
