Nick's knee cont.

Nick's surgery went very well. They removed a tear in his Meniscus and cleaned out some other areas as well. He felt pretty good but was quite nauseous from the anesthesia. He is looking at about a 2-3 week recovery and then should be good to go. If today is any indication he is going to be a stubborn patient. His will is strong but I guarantee mine is stronger!

Nick's knee

As some of you may remember Nick injured his knee during a football game last fall. As with most kids he didn't take nearly enough time letting it heal and has had lingering pain ever since. We saw a specialist this spring and after x-rays and an MRI he decided Nick needed the knee scoped to see just what the problem is.  Well tomorrow is the day...They will be doing the scope and fixing the problem all in one shot.  We're told best case scenario his off it 2-3 weeks, worst case 4-6 months.  This has been hard for Nick to think about since football is so important to him and if it's the "worst case" he'll miss the start of the season. We are hoping for the best and will keep you all posted.

Fred is back and he brought a friend

This is what I saw when I looked out the window this morning. They spent about half an hour waddling around our backyard.
