Surgery #4

Andre has survived the fourth surgery on his knee! He went in at 3 pm today and we were home by 6 this evening. The doctor removed a lot of scar tissue from inside the knee and was able to bend it almost all the way back. He seemed pleased but did say that he may have to do another of this kind of surgery again in a few months. An ACL repair may follow that.

So, now he's in for some intense physical therapy, work-outs every day on a bike, and 6 hours a day on a machine that automatically keeps his knee moving...photos to follow!

Glad to know he's back home and through the surgery. I'm sure in a way he will enjoy working his knee after having it straight for so long. Keep us posted!

Love you~
