Mom is about to have surgery. Can you share your parents' experiences? How long does recovery take? Will she be able to walk without support? What kind of rehabilitation is involved? Is there a chance for active movement, like skiing?
Drop some ideas, I'm stuck. And who made a fairytale book for their baby about them? Like, the main…

What skis? It depends on how your rehabilitation goes before you can walk properly, and you're already getting ahead of yourself 🙈

You'll be discharged on day 3-5. In the hospital, you'll need to start working on your leg and doing exercises. You'll use crutches for a while. You'll need a raised toilet seat to make the toilet higher. You can squat a little at first, but you can't bend it completely. At home, continue with exercises, and then it's beneficial to work on it with a stationary bike. After recovery, maintain a normal weight to avoid excess strain.

My mom had knee replacement surgery. She left the hospital limping. Rehabilitation was quite fast; the only thing is she needed crutches for the first 2 months. Then she used a cane for another month. When I picked her up from the hospital, I only carried her bag of things. Mom moved around on her own and flew home a few days later.

Orlova Natalya Optimism is good, but I think with this attitude everything will be great.

My mom had a change in July... unfortunately, she can't bend her leg. She's going for rehabilitation on November 16th to work on her ligament stagnation. Her leg is still swollen and hot. The swelling is normal, but the fact that she still can't bend it is concerning, even though she's been exercising and doing her physical therapy.

My mom had her first knee replaced 1.5 years ago and her second one a month ago. The second knee recovery was easier for her; she still has some stiffness in the first one. I don't know about skiing, but she said to be careful with knees. Sick leave was about 3-4 months.
