Surprise! You need Surgery!!!

For the past 8 years, my right knee has locked up. I just stand up and it locks and won't straighten. So I am forced to hobble around for days until it straightens itself out. Well, it locked up on Monday again. So I went to an Orthopedic surgeon and he said lets get you into surgery tomorrow. I was all, "What?!". He said that it is probably part of my meniscus that gets in the way of straightening it, So I go in on Weds and get it done. He said that it wasn't my meniscus. I had an extra part in my knee! I'm deformed! SO he removed that and hopefully that will solve my problem. Ty went to Jeep Safari in Moab the next day. SO my niece has been staying here and dealing with the boys while I've been in bed. I am in a lot of pain. I am very fortunate to have neighbors and friends offer to bring in meals for us. I thank you with all my heart! Hopefully I will be up and around in a couple more days.
