‘After a very active childhood full of outdoor activities (and a skiing accident 30 years ago) I tore all the cartilage from my right hip.

‘A huge thank you to the amazing nurses @stvincentshospitalsydney for the care, a bit of Endone (pic 5), lots of rehab and all my lovely friends for my flower filled room!
‘Fun fact: There are 54,000 hip replacements performed in Australia each year, but I have to say my surgeon, Dr Michael Solomon, is THE best.’
