My father recently went through knee replacement surgery. It’s a pretty standard procedure, but involved a lot of cutting of muscle tissue and ligaments. He has to undergo a few months of physical therapy and during that process is understandably using a combination of walkers, canes and crutches. The crutches are his least favorite because…
Almost everyone is familiar as to what significance this day holds every year. For almost as long as I can remember, the day after Thanksgiving was an epic shopper’s wet dream.
