I'm so sorry to hear of your misfortune:flowerforyou: I hope you enjoy the site and it works for you. I have never golfed but many people in my family do and enjoy it immensely. Have you asked your doctor what kinds of exercise you can do? I'd be hesitant to suggest anything. But I'd be more than happy to chit chat when I am on.0
