Well, things are going very well and I am just plugging along in life. I went to a doctor's appointment today about my right knee. When I was 4 I had surgery so that I would be able to bend my leg. This was due to other problems that occurred when I was a baby as a result of being born very prematurely. So, when I was little I had surgery and thought it was the neatest thing to be able to do something so simple as bending your knee. Well, after the surgery I could bend my knee around 90 degrees at one point. As, I have gotten older it has gotten a little less. So, I went to see what medical advances have occurred in the 20 plus years since I was around 5. I found out that there was something the doctor could do. I am excited, but at first I was a little uncertain what to think since this will be something new. I can not imagine what it would be like to be able to sit on your knees, sit Indian style a little better and have more mobility. So, to me this will be great just to be able to be given something that I have not ever had.
The interesting thing is that the doctor I went to see knew the doctor who originally did my knee surgery when I was 4 and said he would contact him and tell him that he saw me. I learned that my doctor who originally did the surgery now lives in Utah which I did not know since I have not seen him since I was about 10 or so. So, in conclusion, we will just have to wait to see what I tell my mom after the surgery this go around. hehe.
