Knee Surgery









Here Chris is getting ready to go into surgery. He got to watch some pretty cool TV. We were also giving him a bad time. He did not want us to take his picture, but you know me. I need them for my blog. We also gave him a bad time because he is so tall and his feet were hanging off the bed.

He had to have surgery because, apparently he had broken his knee cap. Could of been from our accident many years ago, or volleyball. We are not really sure. So they went in and drilled some holes to awaken the bone and have it re-heal it self and put a screw in there. Scraped off the extra scare tissue and extra bone hanging and made him like new.

He did well, but came out from his deep sleep swinging. It took 6-7 nurses to hold him down. When they finally let him go. You could tell he was mad and ready to get out of there. They say it is normal for boys his age to act that way. Glad to know that, because that is so out of character for Chris.
