Re: my knee surgery


It does feel great.... like someone put a wonderful cool air conditioner on a hot spot on your knee... the CPM machine is great too.... It all helps for it to heal much faster. I am already up to 65* from starting out at 30* last night. I need to be able to bend my knee to 120* so maybe in a few days I will be able to.
thanks,
Tricia

Hope your recovery goes by quickly. Ice water, brrrr, I hope that feels
better than it sounds.

I made it through and the first night is over. If I can just get used to
using crutches this won't be too bad. They gave me a machine that I am
suppose to get on every 2 hours for 2 hours.  Today I go to the physical
therapist to have the drain tube taken out and an ice bladder put on
that will circulate ice water around my knee constantly.
I had gone out and taken 120 pictures of my gardens so that while I am
down I can still get to the computer to look at them.
We have had wonderful weather for quite awhile so I had time to get
almost everything caught up.  I had dwarf Alberta spruces in to huge
pots by my garage.  They had gotten so big that I moved them to other
places in the yard and replaced them with "Gold Cone" Junipers.  Has
anyone ever grown this variety?
Thank you for all of your prayers!
