again

Lady K fixed me. : ) She's so smart and wonderful, and yay! Because now that I don't have to worry about the blog, I get to worry about Josh.

So, last year near the end of February, Josh's right knee dislocated severely enough and soon enough after the last time that we scheduled him for reconstructive surgery on March 17 and when we went to the Dells, his knee was immobilized.

Today, Josh's right knee, the one fixed last year, subluxed. Basically, it dislocated and went back in. We think that he hurt it a few weeks ago at bowling, as it's been periodically sore since then.

Now, he is in pain and his knee will be immobilized for the next two weeks (including this weekend at the Dells). If it doesn't heal itself with the immobilization and less pressure, he needs more surgery.

Mom's devastated. And in a bit of denial. I thought I was doing okay until I almost started crying when I told the teacher I work with. Josh can't go outside. He can't ride his horse or bowl. He can't go up the stairs to his bedroom. He can't eat at the kitchen table. He's stuck in the lower level and guest bedroom for at least two weeks. Mom is stuck with him.

I'm so upset. My baby boy. : ( I'm so worried.

:( Poor Joshy, I'm sorry... was it really only a year ago that he hurt his knee so bad, though? Seems like longer. :/
Tell your mom I'm thinking of her, too, and hope that the 2 weeks is enough to heal him without surgery!

But I'm glad I could fix the blog situation to make one less thing to worry about! :)
