Airehead Posted September 22, 2017 Share #1 Posted September 22, 2017 Today I had to order this. I got answers but they weren't the ones I was hoping for. Posterior meniscus root tear, non-operable except for via knee replacement. Likely happened when the tumor was in my thigh bones and made undue stress and weakness. They are making one of these for me. I was feeing sorry for myself until I shared the elevator with a man who had just gotten his first prosthetic leg. He was so happy and so glad to be alive. I am too. 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He immediately started drilling the residents and they looked scared. Then he sat down with me for about 30 minutes Iike he hadn;t a care in the world and explained every MRI slide and the few possible options.

Not for awhile because my bones look like sandpaper and are wearing away any remaining cartilage. I am thinking of selling my Terry Isis and just keeping the Symmetry and the new bike. Mr. Aire says it is premature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
