Take 2 ... Knee Surgery

Here we Go!

It's been 10 months since my fall, since I shattered my patella.
Today, Feb. 5th is surgery #2 


One of my main goals, get rid of this screw sticking out of my skin.




I'm scared, i don't want to do this, but i 
want to move on ...
This helped.... LOL
This attaches to your hospital gown, it makes you feel like the 
Michelen Man, but as it blows hot air into your gown and makes you feel 
warm all over ... you begin to relax !!



























We are getting rid of the huge hardware and I am happy to report
they did not have to put any new hardware in !!
It looks pretty good, considering how bad I broke it.
Dr. Low believes the rest of the fractures will heal. 

 Bring on my recovery !!
Back to the couch, no bending for a week, but that's ok it hurts, so
the last thing i want to do is bend it.
  My day consists of pain meds and the ice machine .. 


This has been no fun, but everything is going so much better than i had expected.
Keep you posted !!
