This blog will be a chronicle of my knee injuries, surgeries, therapies, and recuperation. What started out as a simple meniscus tear back in the 1970s turned into a journey of surgery after surgery, long periods on crutches, lots of physical therapy, and ultimately, nearly full recovery.
Some of the procedures I had done on my knee were quite advanced and not commonly performed in the U.S. at the time. I was fortunate in that one of the few orthopaedic surgeons outside of Boston with any real experience in those procedures was just across the bay. Far enough away to be a PITA when I had an appointment with him, but close enough that it was plenty reasonable to make the drive in order to benefit from his experience and skills.
