“I See Dead Hips,” How I Was Diagnosed By A Car Salesman – My wife and I went to a car dealership to drop off her car for repair. I walked through the showroom while she was checking in. A salesman approached me and I was ready for the, “Can I help you,” line. Instead the salesman, sounding like the kid from the movie, The Sixth Sense, commented that, “I see you have the same thing I have.”

He paused and when I looked slightly confused (sadly, this is normal for me) he continued, “I see you need to have your hip replaced. My operation is next week.” I was stunned and knew that over the past year I limped slightly at times, but I wasn’t aware of how obvious my ‘modified gait’ was to outsiders.

And, at the time, I didn’t think I was a candidate for a hip replacement. His diagnosis was two years before my operation.

(I wonder how many others can see dead hips).

The Sixth Sense (1999) – “I see dead people.”
