Watch VideosSomething I learned in the whole process of finding out about my fracture in my hip is because it's in the neck of my femur and if that breaks through, which is very likely for me to happen, then that can cause blood flow problems to the head of my femur, which in turn can lead to me needing a hip replacement. And at my age, if I get a hip replacement, that's fine, like I can like get back to, you know, pretty much normal with a new hip, but then in 20 years, I'll have to get it like redone, which, and then again, 20 years later, I'll have to have another hip surgery of some sort. And each time it just gets more, your body can't recover as well each time from it. And so at my age, breaking my femur is, or the neck of my femur slash hip is not the best option for me because of the long-term effects.
