Knee Replacement

Feb 06, 2010

Well, the surgery from March was unsuccessful and painful.  Would you believe that I taught school on one crutch until this surgery January 20, 2010?  Praise God.  I went to the Cleveland Clinic and had surgery.  My doctor was Dr. Mark Froisom.  He is awesome.  I know that the fall in the bath tub, and the kick in the leg from a student started my problems but also I was overweight for some years putting undo pressure on the knee and leg.  However, I am just three weeks out from my knee surgery.  I am in pain but it is rehabilitation painful and brutal in which it means that it will get better.  I am so grateful.  I am coming up on my three year surgerversary June 20th.  I will have a new knee to ride my five speed bike that I purchased last year and could not ride it.  I will be able to do line dancing without pain and learn the Obama shuffle.  I will be able to take my dog on long walks without pain and without getting short-winded.  I will be able to lose my last 15 pounds or perhaps 20 more.  Don't  get me wrong, I am grateful for reaching my current set goal, I just want to do more.  I will be completing my master's this June.  Graduation here I come again four times.  I just want to learn how to live the life that God has given me and live it abundantly.  I am also going to unclutter my lower level, garage and redecorate my dining room.  I will exercise everyday to keep my weight down and to keep my knee in shape as well as to keep a positive disposition and attitude. Obestity affects our entire being our bones, organs, muscles, spine, mind, spirit and soul.
