New Knee

This handsome bit of metal and plastic is not a car part. It's a human body part. A new knee replacement part.*  My sister in law had one of these shiny things put in her left leg on Tuesday.  A total knee replacement, how cool is that?  Leslie is already up and walking on it, slowly, with a walker, and with help, but that's ok, she will be out and walking in no time.  She has been kneeding one of these for years!  Goooo Leslie!

*be glad, be VERY glad, I didn't show you the other version of this from Google.

  1. Boy, that is cool! I had no idea of what they looked like, and never would have thought to look.

    I hope your sister will have a speedy and smooth recovery.
