Jim,

Part two nearing and I'm sure everything will be fine !

Did not send you pictures of Le Mans Classic yet because the friend who did the pictures and the videos on the race track ( 2 gentle rides at "show" speed ) did not send them to me either ...
but don't worry I'll get them soon or later... and you'll get them too.


Below one short vdo found on the web : one can see how GOOD your job on my Speedlines was ! I did also recommend you to a friend of mine ( owning a 964 Turbo 3.6 litre ) and I'm sure he will
touch base with you soon

Final pre op tomorrow morning, and am scheduled for 10 am on Wednesday for my right knee replacement. I am starting to eat lighter foods, and am taking flowmax before surgery to help me recover and be more comfortable than last time getting my bodily functions back to normal. I want to thank everyone for their good thoughts and the many speedy recoveries I have received. Jim jdorociak@gmail.com

Wow! What a beautiful car it took almost 1 year to coordinate everything and the wheels made the trip to the USA and then back to France just in time for the big event. I am so tickled you are happy with the results and now I have another Porsche friend but this time in France. It was an honor to be chosen to restore your set of Speedlines for such a special guy and of course a significant Turbo S lightweight. Thank you. Jim jdorociak@gmail.com

Ok guys - each knee and the recovery time is different. I was not sick the second day after surgery this time, but was in so much pain I could barely function. So different adjustments during surgery and less left over medicine means you need more pain medicine immediately. We got that adjustment finally, my bodily functions came back faster, got released 1 day earlier from Hospital, but Saturday and Sunday at home were pretty miserable. Monday and Tuesday a little better, but still too much swelling to be worth much. PT starts in the morning and I am optimistic this knee will recover faster but again everything is different. A couple of additional sets have come in and at this point I am turning them away until I catch up and recover. I do hope everyone understands. My full time job is recovery for maximum range of motion and quality of life. It appears 2 months is a minimum recovery time but my endurance still is not what I once had so it gets better slowly. jdorociak@gmail.com Again thank you all for the well wishes. Jim
