Two Women,Two Knees, Two Surgeries, Two Cities

My mom in El Paso and Michael's Aunt Kathy in Austin are both having knee surgery today. My mom's is and has been planned for some time now. She is having her knee replaced. It has gotten to the point that is is hard for her to walk at times so I know she is very much looking forward to finally being able to get this done and start walking again as are we all happy that she gets to finally have this done! As for Kathy she isn't so lucky as her surgery wasn't planned. Last week she was in a really bad accident and broke her knee (leg) in several places. She has to go under to get it all fixed up and will be in a cast for 6-8 weeks.

I hope all my loyal readers will keep both these wonderful women in your thoughts today and the next few days as they get all fixed up and start their road to recovery. We will be sending many many get well and good luck vibes from this side of the ocean. We love you both :)

As a side note. I'm still sick. Felt better on Saturday, but yesterday and today haven't been all that great. I keep morphing into different symptoms. It's not so much fun. Mary and Jason get here in about 5 hours. We are SOOO excited for that. I just hope they don't get whatever it is I have.
