How quickly things can change...
In the time it takes to fall from a standing position to crumpled on the ground, so much can change!
Long story short: I had a bad knee that turned out to be a horrible knee. I was standing with all my weight on the bad knee when it decided to buckle. I went down fast and hard! During the fall, my foot got crumpled underneath me.
An ER visit, x-rays, a visit to the orthopedic surgeon, mri for my knee and my foot, and a cat scan later....torn acl, partially torn mcl, medial meniscus damage, medial condyle fracture all in my knee, and torn liz franc ligament and dislocated bones in my foot.
This summer was suppose to bring adventures and family memory time n OKC with the grandparents. It was suppose to bring great clinical experiences and learning opportunities at OU Med Center. Now it brings two surgeries and long rehabs!!!
First surgery scheduled for Thurs afternoon to fix my foot. Then about three weeks after that, surgery for acl recontruction and clean up of the other issues in the knee.
How quickly it all changed...but the Good Lord doesn't give more than I can handle...it just isn't an easy road ahead...
