Knee Surgery Update....
UPDATE: Moved the text up here just in case some of you wanted to read about my update and not see the photos...Here you go...
Made the trek down to Kaiser Permanente Travelodge offices this morning for a follow up appointment with my surgeon's AP. She was very happy with my progress. Took some measurements asked some questions and sent me on my way with a gold star on my progress chart. Asked if I had any questions and then said...Oh wait...I almost forgot the best part...And handed me these printouts. Pretty crazy stuff! Don't get old kids...don't get old.
