Extractions: CNN (CNN) So far, Wendy Housel has undergone surgeries to replace nine of her joints both shoulders, both wrists, both hips, both knees, and her left elbow. She's had a "revision" done on her right hip. She's had two cervical spine surgeries. And she just had a cataract (the result of taking steroids to combat arthritis) removed from one eye. At 49, she knows all too well the ravages of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), which afflicts more than 2 million Americans. But with more surgeries on the horizon, Housel keeps a positive attitude. "I do not call them surgeries. I call them opportunities," says Housel, who lives in Chatham, Illinois, with her elderly mother and her sister's family. "The surgeries have improved in a dramatic way the quality of my life. That's the mindset that I go into surgery with. "Surgery is just a normal part of my life," she says.

About The canine skeletal system is a marvel of bones, cartilage, and ligaments that provide the body with a framework to erect on four strong legs, protect internal organs, and provide a full range of motion. The muscles furnish the power to propel the dog into action, but without healthy bones, joints, and connective tissue, the muscles cannot do their job. Joints the skeletal hinges give the skeleton flexibility for walking, trotting, running, jumping, climbing, and moving the head and neck to increase the field of vision. The dog's body has three types of joints: ball and socket such as the hip and shoulder joints; hinged joints such as the knees and elbows; and gliding or plane joints such as the wrists and ankles. The joints are lubricated for smooth action by synovial fluid and are stabilized by tendons and ligaments. When the joints are damaged by injury or disease, arthritis (joint inflammation) can occur.
