Where's My Suitcase, I'm Going on Vacation!

Yeah! To All,

Good news, Bad News. I went to the Dr yesterday and all test came back. There isn't any form of virus or infection in the fluid that was drawn from my knee. And as we already heard, there doesn't seem to be a defect in the hardware (joint replacement) but there is a possibility that there is a microscopic looseness that only can be found through exploratory surgery. I asked the Dr if that meant moving the skin aside to see the movement of the muscle or what? He said worse, he would need to remove all the muscle from the joint area to see the movement and look for any slipping. That means full surgery and recovery would be as starting over.

I can barley walk, and transfer so I'm defiantly getting worse instead of better. I want to rule out that this isn't weather related because it is real cold here and I don't now how but I'm going to bite the bullet and do more intense therapy and try out the pool for no weight bearing exercise. I do have good days here and there so I'm going to play/work before I face another surgery.

I'm going to Az for 2 weeks.  I will be stepping back in time.  It has been since Dec 1 of 2008 since I have been home.  I'm looking forward to so much and yet know already how hard it will be without my Honey with me.  I also know I'll be in a safe place with family, friends and neighbors.  If you want to get rich quick I'd buy stock in the tissue stock market because I know the sales are going up in March.

I could use some help if anyone is available.  I'll see you all soon.
Love
