How bad could it be???
Drum roll please as we anounce the official results of the mri on my right knee......
1) dislocated the knee cap (which was already put back inplace the day after)
2) two tears in the menescus
3) a strain of the lcl
and the good stuff
4) a impact fracture on the top of the tibula (or slight crack which is causing
the bleeding and swelling)
5) a tear of the acl where the middle and lower portion meet
so yes there will be surgery and i am out of the hill country trip as according to the doctor i will be lucky to be off crutches by then. all of this for a softball team that sucks that i don't even play on. thanks "spousal unit" (stolen from ron) and teammates for the pain, suffering and at least two months of wasted, beautiful riding weather. i was going to post this on wed when i got the news but i have been a little angry the last few days. finally i have said "it is what it is lets fix it and get moving on to rehab." do not offer to ride my bike for me like the folks at work because the answer is NO!!!!!!

Re: How bad could it be???
Wow, Chris, that completely sucks :-[ Someone once said softball was more dangerous than bull fighting... Hemmingway I think.

GUS HERE (using Andre's computer thingy and too lazy to sing off and on)
Sorry to hear about your knee. Those are a pain in the butt to heal, but nowadays the surgery to clean up the cartilage is much improved.
Get well soon.

Re: How bad could it be???
I dont think i will make this thurs but prob the next one. i know keep ur chin make best of bad situation heard them all but the reality is IT F@#KN SUCKS!!!!
according to the doc the torn acl and the impact fracture r the two worst parts otherwise it's a scope and done. my poor wife feels so bad but i do so love to grind that knife in. my son asked my wife what he should and told her he was scared because he has never seen me hurt this bad. the only thing he has ever seen is when a wrench slips off and u bust your knuckles little stuff like that. i had to tell him the other night to just chill i can do things mydelf i just have to do them in a wierd and slower way.
