Cheryl GlaiserCheryl Glaiser was the recipient of a total hip replacement by the time she was twenty-three years old. In 1985, only about ten thousand hip replacements were performed each year, and very few on people her age. These days, half a million hip replaceents are performed each year in the U.S. alone.
