Surgery

Well my friends, I knew I was scheduled to have total knee surgery on November 15th. So I was deglicting blogging and a few other academic tasks to try and get all the yard work that needed done before I'd be laid up. Plus I had students in ever day doing research projects in the Media Center and I was doin a lot of one-on-one with them. Didn't leave a lot of time to what my wife calls "goofing off".
The doctor told me it would be like "falling off a log". In the hospital 4 days, 3 nights then go home with home care nursing and physical therapy. Be back on my feet in 4-6 weeks.
So far the only correct thing is that I had surgery on November 15th. In the words of my doctor, through his Phusician's Assistant, my knee was so messed up it qualifies as among the worset he has seen. I apparently lost a lost of blood because my blood count fell from 14 to 8.3. Sop I was kept int he hospital two extra days and received 2 units of blood. When it reached 9.5 they let me come home.
I've been home for two days now and the report today is that my blood count is up to 10. PT has been out and wore me out.
Hopefully I can get back to work on the workshop assignments tomorrow.
