So, last week - or was it the week before, I can't remember.... I had my appointment with the orthopedist. Dr. Kennedy did a thorough exam of my knee and ordered a few more x-rays (this time with me standing instead of lying down). After viewing the x-ray he said that it shows that everything is in GREAT shape! The joint is solid and there is no need for anything further.
As for the joint pain, he pointed out that anytime a joint has surgery, it's never the "Same" as before. It's likely to be more sensitive than the other. Any pain or imflamation can be handled with Aleve.
So, huge praises that there will not be any need for surgery. :)
It's still bothering me some, but not as much as it was a month ago. Who knows, maybe in the anxiety of everything my mind was on hyper alert to any twinge of discomfort?! LOL
Regardless, thank you for your prayers and your support thru the last 2 months of this waiting process.

So glad to hear that you don't have to have knee surgery. That is an answer to prayer! I hope you were able to sing this morning and to stay away from those germs floating around. I hope your kids feel better. Oh, yes, I do love your new template. Very nice! Miss you!
