A man from Richmond in Fort Bend County got shocking news when he went in for a knee replacement.
Christopher French has spent the past year in recovery for more than his knee. We caught up with him at Levy Park in Houston to discuss his helpful advice with other men.There's no place Christopher would rather be than spending time with his horses. He was apprehensive about taking time away from them for a knee replacement, but that time off ended up being more than he ever expected. Routine blood work came back raising suspicions of cancer.
"Essentially what we do with our procedures through some tiny holes in his abdomen, we remove the prostate using the DaVinci robot, and then we reconstruct the bladder and the urethra," explains Dr. Krishnan."Another nice thing for me and a fortunate thing for men, if they're worried about this part of it, they do this with a machine. They don't just get in there and cut up," says Christopher.
"I'd be on the highway and say, okay from this section to the next section, I'm going to do it! So, I was doing what I needed to do," says Christopher."One tablet a day and I'll do that for a year to help blood flow in certain areas. Hey, I don't have cancer, I'm not going to die, and I'm still who I am," exclaims Christopher.That means this "cowboy at heart" is back in the saddle again.
