Gotta leave work early today. Taking the wife to the hospital for her knee surgery. She's had knee issues for awhile and finally getting it taken care of. The MRI was inconclusive as to the damage, so it could be something as simple as just getting her knee scoped all the way to a full ACL reconstruction, they won't know until they get in there.

Good luck, bro. Hopefully it's something minor that she can recover from quickly.

i'll be in san antonio with probably a dead day in between meetings in mid may
I didnt catch that auto correct struck again. Her, not here, lol.
A very long day. Had to have her at the surgery center by 11 for a surgery scheduled at 1. We got there about 10:45 and it wasn't until about 11:30 that they took her back to start the prep. About a half hour-ish later I was allowed back to sit with her. Nurses and doctors came in explaining everything and explaining what was going to happen. Pretty soon it's just after one and her surgeon comes in to tell us that the surgeon using the OR at the time is still in there and it's probably going to be at least an hour late getting the wife in. So about 1:30 I left to go run some errands, go to the pharmacy to pick up her scripts, get some miscellaneous stuff she'll need at home, etc. Got home, ate, showered and tried to get the place ready. Got a call about 4:15 and they said they were getting ready to close and then move her to recovery. Got back to the surgery center about 4:45 and was waiting in the lobby for them to come and get me. The surgeon came out not long after I had gotten there and explained everything and said he was extremely happy with the way the surgery went. It was worse than they thought it was going to be, but he said he was able to get everything fixed up and her knees should be as good as new when she heals.
Wasn't until about 5:30 that they came and got me and brought me back to see her. She was in a LOT of pain and they were worried because her heart rate was pretty high and they wanted to get it down before they discharged her. So we were there until about 7 before she could leave and come home. It was quite a challenge getting her in the house and upstairs to the bedroom with the huge honking brace she was wearing and the crutches. Just before we got her into bed, she did slip and come down on her leg she had surgery on and she was in a lot of pain from that again. Got her situated though after a bit, unload the car, get her meds and some food and drink upstairs for her and soon it was after 8:30 PM. Finally got myself into bed about 9:15-ish.
Have to get her back to the surgery center this afternoon to talk to the surgeon again and check how she's doing and go over everything with her. It's going to be a challenge getting her downstairs and to the car this afternoon. And it sounds like she's going to be in some pretty serious pain for a few days.

That's tough. Knees can be bloody agony. I hope for a relatively smooth recovery.
May I ask, is she scheduled for an hydrotherapy once it heals? It's the bomb for lower body rehab.
