LEFT KNEE in Postcards 4

2006: Left knee at Disneyland.

We were off to see the Orthopedic doc at either. Instead of like the guy at Kaiser, who gave us only one option, Dr. Shultz gave us a three pronged approach. He can go in and clean the torn meniscus out and make a judgement call about a partial knee replacement VS the arthritis and other damage. He’s a good candidate for this, the doctor told us. If he was older, the good doctor would recommend a total knee replacement. So first we will see if the cleanout will let G sleep again.

I did let him know that I really wanted to go to Disneyland this year. I reminded him that he can roll through the Park instead of walking.

• Himself: Work at 6, and as the phone didn’t ring, he got a lot done.


• Myself: As usual, my cooking was a failure. Flavor was good, but boy was mine tough. His was tender. Got all those tucks sewn correctly. Began sewing the big crow a second time around to make it stand out more. Gotten several calls from friends at work who miss me.


• Reading: Still Eleanor Roosevelt VIII.


• Gratitude’s: That the doctor let me sit in and explained things so both of us could understand.
