My right patella was broken on 1/12/03. This is about the recovery process.

Almost A Week!
It has been almost a week and my kneecap feels good. The tendons in the back of the knee and heal are sore which is expected due to the fact that my leg was in a cast for almost 9 weeks.

Yesterday, I had to go out to another doctor (a family practitioner) because of a Safety Department (Driver's License's Division) wanting me to have a yearly physical because I suffer from seizures if I don't get enough sleep and stop taking my meds -- otherwise my seizures are under control. The whole thing is silly but I was scared that my recent knee mishaps would effect the new doctor's opinion about whether or not I am capable of driving. Luckily, it did not.

Anyway, I was doing well with my walker and felt rather confident when it came to walking. I am very glad that I have had no pains in the knee.

My husband did tell me that roller skating is out of the question *Smile* and if I am to try he would by a Harley *Smile* ... I am hoping he was kidding because I know that someday I will skate again -- probably not around my son because he has even stated that he will not allow me to skate again.
