"The Young and the Restless" star Eric Braeden — who grew up in post-World War II Germany — recently overcame a physical hurdle in his life. On December 15, Braeden posted a photo of himself standing in the hospital after knee replacement surgery on Twitter. With one hand on a walker, he held his other fist in the air, indicating his strength, writing: "After knee replacement! Thinking of you all!" Many fans could relate to his experience, with one stating, "My brother-in-law had the surgery, and he's a new man!! He's a mover and shaker too. Be well, and try not to push yourself. Rome wasn't built in a day!" Braeden responded, "Good to know!! Yes, patience is in order! Not a virtue I'm known for!"
A concerned fan wrote, "Get well soon, Eric. I, too, need to undergo the same procedure but have been holding off. Some of my friends have had major issues with the surgery in the recovery process, while others have not. Hopefully, your physical rehabilitation goes well. Prayers." To which Braeden replied, "Yes, I have heard the same! In my case, it was really getting bad, and surgeon said years of impact had degenerated to the point of holes in the knee!"
Per Michael Fairman TV, "Y&R" is now taking its holiday break, which helps Braeden's recovery since he doesn't have to worry about shooting any scenes.
