Objet : [Leica] They rebuilt me

I got a new hip on Tuesday, after a roller coaster of uncertainty and three 
different surgery dates due to area hospital?s COVID overcrowding. Now, like 
some fine cameras and aircraft, I am partially made of titanium. I went home 
the next day. The hip is healing well. I can hobble around the house with a 
walker. More bothersome are the fatigue, and side effects from the post-op 
medications.

Here is a suitably dramatic post-op selfie, and a nicely abstract 
instructional photo Katya took of the position I must frequently assume, 
with a side order of ice.  The strap is helps me lift up my leg when I get 
in or out of bed. It looks more suitable for lashing large items to a pickup 
truck.
