Boy, Jimmy I'd like to meet you doctor! I've only had Orthoscopic knee
surgery once (torn cartlidge) and it took me a good six months to
recover. My knee was swollen for a month. You are really blessed it
went so well. Congratulations.

Knee surgery a success. Got home at 1:00 p.m. took a 3 hour nap and
I'm already able to walk without pain. No crutches needed. Doc says I
can take the bandage off tomorrow morning and shower and only have to
put a couple of bandaids on the tiny sutures and then walk a little
tomorrow morning, tomorrow afternoon and by Saturday, I should be able
to do most anything, except kick Jody. :-P
The best thing about all this is that I can wade again without fear of
my knee locking up in mid-stream. A fly fisherman never knows how
important his legs and feet are until he loses the use of them, even
if it's only temporarily. One of my most dreaded fears is not being
able to wade!
I'm having a great day, how about you?
