Spoke Too Soon! Update! Update!

Spoke too soon!  Orthopedist just called and I have a hairline fracture of my kneecap.  Have to wear a brace to keep the leg straight, and go back to see him next week to be sure it hasn't displaced.  .Stay on crutches, ice and anti-inflammatories.

At least at this point no surgery is needed.  Gotta' look for those bright spots~

I smoked until a vascular surgeon informed me of the damage I had done to myself by doing so. I quit 11 years ago, and I can swim laps virtually FOREVER now, walk most other days 40 minutes to an hour and a half. What a difference quitting has made in my life! I strive to help others find this wonderful freedom from addiction, too.
