    Pain is slowly getting better. But what gets me, it’s my understanding most people are put on some kind of machine that gets their knee moving almost immediately after surgery. I just got to walk down the hall twice a day. PT comes tomorrow, a full week after the surgery. And I thought I might get some supplies, ie. a walker, toilet lift, something....I was sent home with a roll of tape and 3 gauze packs. That was it. I’ve been trying to do exercises I looked up on internet, but most I can’t due because quad muscle is toast, and I still can’t bend the knee. Doc doesnt believe in ice for swelling, says “ice creates water, water creates infection.”
    So for a week it’s been swollen, and I can barely bend it. I guess I’m pissed more st the system. Luckily I had my dads old walker, or I really would have been screwed.

    I stayed up all night to see where the sun went. Then it dawned on me.

    PT has been here twice now, and by golly...I can bend my knee a lot better. Pain and swelling are almost gone. I am seeing a light at the end of the tunnel. And guess what else? Anybody? Anyone? No?













    Well I’ll tell you...I pooped. It was glorious.

    Great to hear Domey, And here I was about to send you a BBQ care package...
    Give a man fire, and he'll be warm for a day!
    Light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life!

    Cat's are food... not friends!

    If you're going to fight, then fight like you're the third monkey on the ramp into Noah's arc... and brother, it's starting to rain.
