My Right Patella Recovery

Third time around!!

I go into surgery for the third time tomorrow, Friday 3/7. This time the doctor said that he would put a cast on my leg because the pins and wire keep releasing and turning into nothing. The doctor said my knee will never heal properly this way.

I am so overwhelmed at the moment. I had really thought I was being careful this second time around, now this blow.

The difference this time is something the doctor should have done the first time -- he is going to put a cast on my leg. I just hope to hell this works the third time around. Third time is a charm -- or so I hope.
