As of 19 April 2021, my left bionic hip has been in continuous service for 4,044 days (12.07 years); my right bionic hip has been in continuous service for 3,085 days (8.45 years). During recent trips to the orthopedist and a few x-rays later, I got the good news that they are aging gracefully. Unfortunately, my arthritic knees are not!

My bionic left hip was five years old on 23 March 2014. It’s gone through countless miles on the treadmill and behind the lawnmower, along with all of the daily stuff that requires its services. It lets me know every once in a while that it needs some down time, but all in all it soldiers on without complaint.
