I'll be away from the board for a bit as I go in for arthroscopic knee surgery. Should be done in a few hours, but somehow I don't think I'll be feeling like browsing the boards when I come back. So, have fun and don't buy any accessories I wouldn't buy!!! But if you find some new really good stuff, be sure to post about it so I'll have something to look forward to. I think Eleanor the Kindle needs a post surgery present, tee-hee.  Betsy |

My husband had knee surgery just about two years ago... He only hobbled for a few days, so I have high hopes for a quick recovery for you as well!

Wow, you all are too kind!!!!
I'm all verklempt! Wait a minute while I get a tissue.
It went well, apparently! I slept most of yesterday evening. I can do full weight bearing as tolerated. I had a torn meniscus, the torn edge was shredded so he trimmed it; Dr Saddler said there was plenty of meniscus left. I see him this afternoon and then on to therapy tomorrow. Ouch!
Eleanor the K is recovering well too. We're both propped up and under the influence of very good meds! And now for a post surgery gift for Eleanor... any ideas? Found any new kool Kindle stuff?
Thanks again, y'all!
Betsy

I hope you are feeling better. I missed it that you were having surgery. I must have been slacking on the board.
Just curl up with your Kindle and your meds.
Lettie
Thanks, Lettie! Kindle+meds=post surgery happiness!  |

Y'all are the best! I am so encouraged by the comments. I went to the Dr today and now I just have 3 little bandaids and a swollen knee. Now PT tomorrow!
