As most of my readers know by know, I managed to mess up my knee. It’s called Derangement Meniscus, and it means the shock absorber between the tibia and the fibula (behind the knee cap, cartilage on the tibia) was traumatized. So far, no one has mentioned the “S” word, and I am hoping to avoid it altogether. Currently treatment involves elevation and alternating ice. Staying off the feet helps. Boss lady is accommodating, assigning things that can be accomplished while sitting down.

Pushing my luck, that is, trying to hurry the healing process, can/will result in permanent injury and surgery. This will greatly reduce my effectiveness when it comes to self-locomotion.

As much pain as this has meant, I realize how lucky I am.

I have two legs.

For the most part, they work like they are supposed to.

I can wiggle all ten of my toes.

Sure, I use crutches for now, but that’s just temporary.

I cannot express my thanks for those members of the armed forces who have given up so much of their lives for me.

Chat ya later…
