So, life may change just a bit around our household. Randon had surgery on his left knee yesterday and to make it simple, we found out he has damaged cartilage and worn it away in his knee. In order to prevent it from getting worse he needs to lower the impact on his knees. Instead of basketball, raquetball and other knee pounding exercises (that he loves) he needs to do more biking and swimming (which he enjoys). He can still water ski and hopefully snow ski, but just not as aggressively.
We went in expecting something different, per the MRI, but once they looked in the knee it changed everything. Now instead of crutches for 2-3 days, it is six weeks and just a bit of a lifestyle change. He is doing great post surgery. Not much pain and moving around well, so that is great news!
God is good and we know we will have fun this summer on the bikes and in the pool.
