Kneed to Know: Almost Two Months


I’ve debated making a final entry because after seven weeks I am able to function better than I had for many years. Yes, it’s a hassle to use the brace, but the result has been pain-freedom. Seems obvious that my real problem in the not-so-distant past was inflammation. With the inflammation gone and a reduction in joint movement and hyper-extension, bone-on-bone contact is creepy but not pain inducing. I’m long past the days of pick-up basketball games in McClatchey Park in Atlanta, but well able to tend to our ever-expanding garden and regular home maintenance. It’s not as exciting, but still very satisfying.

I’ll keep updating intermittently. Okay?
