surgical adventures

for those that may not know, i had to have surgery on my left knee as i had managed to re-fracture it a few weeks ago as a result of stubbornness and being too aggressive with the physical therapy. surgery was yesterday, and now there will be permanent hardware consisting of two screws and some cable that will hold it all together. recovery is set at six weeks with some pretty strict restrictions on movement, a leg brace is to be worn at all times, along with the assistance of crutches for limited moving around. some of you may know that i was planning on taking a few trips this spring, it looks now as if that will be delayed until the early or mid part of the summer. luckily, the arms work very well, and as long as i manage to keep the leg raised, i will continue to work some with sketches and computer work.
