Not a Pretty Picture

This is the computer diagram for my knee replacement surgery.  When my knee was operated on 62 years ago after a fall (off the bleachers at a football game!) there were no computers naturally and they just went in and removed the meniscus cartilage.  I was in a cast for 6 weeks.  That began the story.  (Of course, a horseback riding accident and other assorted injuries to the knee made things worse and worse.)  I will be doing my first PT a few hours after the surgery this time; no cast just a large adhesive patch essentially.  Times really have changed...for the better.  I met with the surgeon and his assistant.  Wonderful people.  I have 3 more pre-op visits before the day of surgeon.  It will be a very busy July.
