Living with Cancer

I had an appointment with the Dr., who is supposed to do my surgery, last Monday. He said I need a rod that goes from the top of my leg bone to my knee and he said a bolt at the top. He didn't say pin he said bolt. He didn't show me what it looked like but they have a video here, click on patient education and then hip. Next, click on femur fracture fixation with intramedullary rod. This is close to what he will be doing. I had to go to my Dr. and get cleared for surgery and now just waiting on blood work. Not looking forward to this but I will be bionic when I'm done! Cool.
