I understand the AVN thing all too well. I just turned 36 the other day and I cannot wear a pay of high heeled shoes! I had a bone graft done on my left hip in Oct. 99 and at my 1 yr. check up in Oct. 00 found out that I have to have my right hip done. It is scheduled for Feb. 02, 2001. The recovery time for a bone graft is about 9 mos. so I will be on crutches the majority of the year but at least I can walk! All you other AVN folks, keep your head up and you are all in my prayers!
