    Bum knee

    As the old joke goes I have one knee at the vet where they are doing everything they can and the other is up on the roof and it will not come down. I understand your plight. My problem is no one told me that I was going to trade 6 years of glory for a lifetime of misery. If they did how many of us would pick up a foottball? I am going to my orthopod tomorrow and point at the worst one and tell him to fix it, by fair means or foul I no longer care lame SUCKS I will probably leave with a date to get a bright new tin knee and join the throng of people who say why did I wait so long.

    Nulty, I feel for you.....just can't reach. I had my knee scoped in the early '80's but the Dr said he couldn't do anything for it. One of the interior ligaments was stretched to about twice the proper length. So, I've been excersizing properly since then to use other muscles to support it till it breaks. My plan is to not let it happen. Now, my thumbs are another story. Apparently there is no cartilage in either one. Hurts like !#$^@$%& when it's cold out and my wife says I've lost my grip.
