Mommy Has Knee Surgery
This morning I had knee surgery on my left knee. I have a history of knee problems and it dates back to my high school days. Its not fun. My last surgery was 5 years ago with Dr. John Conway. Since then I have had 3 beautiful kids and my time is limited so I opted to have a surgeon closer to me do the surgery. Dr. James Walter did my knee surgery. He as great respect in this area and even my old surgeon has recommended him as well. I did have a second opinion to see what really needs to be done. I had 3 options, don't do anything, scope the knee and or have a patella reallignment. I opted for the scope, less invasive. He did clean out my knee but when he was in there we found out that my knee cap is really out of place. That was my worse fear because that is a more invasive surgery and takes awhile to get back to normal. I will have to make that decision but I also would like to live pain free as well. Daddy has been a great mommy. Although the kids don't understand why I have to stay in bed. They always need mommy. Other than that, everyone is doing fine.
