Hi Cel,

Sorry I haven't replied for a couple of days. Things haven't been going that well and have been quite sick.

Yeah, it would be cool if we got done the same day. Spoke to my physio the other day and thinks that the only thing that may help are the hard tissue operations, which are much more painful and more than I've had before. Ugggh !!! So, I've got to wait for a couple of months to see how I go.

I make gift cards and do some scrap booking too. Find it very relaxing and fun too.

My friend that has a dodgy knee is very tall and she has a good sense of humour too. She freaked out when she saw my knee though.

How's the diet going ? I've actually lost weight in the last couple of weeks, so need to put weight on. I've noticed my knee brace isn't working as well cause of the weight I've lost.

Don't worry about your knee. It will come good with time.

Going to have a pretty quiet weekend.

Speak soon !!!

hey kirsty

I have decided to ditch karate, the boys are still doing it but I have decided to play it a bit safer, Im going to do aqua aerobics once a week and then try and fit in just a swimming session doing laps etc.  Im happier with that!

How was you week/weekend?

Hi Cel,

Sounds like a good idea. Karate is probably one of the worst things with an unstable kneecap. I like your plan of swimming and water aerobics. Just do it within your own limits.

I had a pretty up and down week, but things are back on track. My knee is feeling crap at the moment but I have to wait at least a couple of months to see if it settles down. My knee surgeon is playing it very conservative at the moment. Otherwise, if it doesn't settle it will probably mean undergoing the dreaded knife again !!

Have a good week !

Hey Cel,

How are you ? Have you gone missing in action ?

Things are going well with my new job and sold my car now. So, very pleased about that. Also pleased to say that my shoulder is going ahead in leaps and bounds. I can start swimming and able to do more at pilates too with my shoulder. Unfortunately, my knee isn't great at the moment. I saw my sports physician tonight and thinks my quads are the worse he's seen in a while. I can hardly get any activity out of them. So, back to see my knee physio in a couple of weeks.

Keen to hear how you're going.

Speak soon !!!
