Cock-a-doodle-dooo!

Got CT & PET Scans done today, to give the surgeon more information about how to proceed with treatment. Don't have results for that yet.

Went to my knee surgeon, and got an alternative treatment to surgery for now. It should last long enough to get me through the rest of this.
I got a shot in each knee of a derivitive of Rooster Comb. It creates a cushion in the joint, and acts as an anti-inflammatory. I will get two more injections in the next two weeks. When I asked him if there were any side effects I should be aware of, he got really serious and said, "Well, you may start getting up REALLY EARLY in the morning..." I laughed and said, "And start CROWING!"

Was able to walk around for short distances without my cane! It seems to be working already. I am very hopeful and excited about getting some relief from the knee pain, so I can walk around better!!!!!

Said goodbye to Tacy and Fiona today. :( Will miss them. That baby makes me smile all day! It was so fun having them stay with us over the past few days. It made the parting easier. Their little family is now together again, and living in Alpine, Utah. A beautiful place. I look forward to visiting them there.
