Friday December 13th

i am having knee surgery to replace my ACL. the doctor is using a new technique. instead of cadaver tissue, he is using my quadricep. Less chance of rejection.

i thought pain was localized but it has not stayed in the knee. my hips, my SI Joint and now my lower back is affected, all on the same side.

i am going to be immobile for a few weeks. I am not able to drive for 3 weeks and total time to recover is 4-6 months.

I am rushing around like crazy to get stuff done and i am almost at the bottom of my list.

say a prayer that i don't drive myself crazy.

You will have 3 weeks to regain your mental stability if you do drive yourself crazy. BTW all the best on the surgery. I thank the Lord every day that my health is still holding out.
