Joan Bibeiro, Yonkers, NY — knee replacement
Seventeen years ago on January 19, 1993, at the age of 60 years and 2 1/2 months, I had both my knees replaced. I had spent a few years in pain...24/7. It was time. I was determined to play tennis again. After the surgery and months of rehab, I walked back onto the tennis court with much encouragement from my tennis partners. Lo and behold...I felt as though I had never stopped playing. Thank you Dr. Stephen O'Brien and HSS. My husband, my children and their spouses, and my eight fantastic grandchildren thank you.
