KNEE SURGERY

AFTER

BEFORE--unassuming of the pain to come...

On Sept 30, got my first arthroscopic surgery performed. At Fair Oaks Hospital Dr. Ain, a phenomenal orthopaedic surgeon fixed my left knee. I had a large tear in my meniscus. After injuring it June (it's been a long summer) it never healed and I had to get it fixed.

So my mom is here from FL helping me out. The first few days before the surgery, we got pedicures, went to a movie, out to lunch...we had a great time. Now, I've been slowed down. I'm on crutches, my swelling is huge, my knee is like an elephant. It's really hard going from doing everything to having to stay down. So thank you to all of you, my friends for your kind wishes, cards, desserts, flowers and dinners. I'm so blessed to have such great friends and an amazing family. So thanks to all of you, thanks to Grandma--she is in full swing helping us all out! Thanks mom. And thank you Vicoden.
