Five Weeks

Today makes five weeks that I have been on crutches and three weeks since my surgery. My leg has become really achy. I'm not sure why - maybe therapy? maybe weather? I just want to be able to walk and drive again. It's hard to believe that I haven't driven a car for five weeks.

I found some really cool videos that show my same surgery. I found them informative and it helped me understand what happened with my leg.

THIS ONE shows a meniscus repair, which is what I had done.

THIS ONE shows a meniscus removal. This wasn't my surgery, but it gives an idea of what happened to the outside of my knee. WARNING: it's kind of gross.

These videos help me understand the photos of my surgery a little better.
