Surgery By Ice on Fri 23rd Feb, 07 at 07:13:01
March 1st (beware the Ides of March)
Placentia Linda Hospital, CA
2:00pm PST
Overnight stay

So basically, it goes like this:
- My ACL is completely torn and I have a partially torn meniscus.
- They won't know if the damage is repairable to my meniscus until they stick a scope in my knee. This leads to two post-surgery scenarios:
- They remove the damaged part and, based on the new technique they will use to reconstruct my ACL, I will be able to walk within days after my surgery, run, jump, all that jazz and I will not have to do physical therapy. I will not be on crutches and I will not have to wear my knee brace. They will be securing the new ACL (a cadaver tendon) deep in to my femur and tibia with metal screws. So, I get to set off metal detectors from now on. YES!!!
- They repair my meniscus. I will have to wear my knee brace and be on crutches for 6 weeks while it heals.
- I'll be back at school by March 9th, depending on what they can fix in my knee and what they can't.

Send me love.
