As we all know these are treacherous times to be walking out of doors. Ice can become a problem at the most unexpected time. Well, I found out last Thursday just how dangerous the ice can be. While walking to the gym in Evansville for a granddaughter's basketball game, I all of a sudden found myself writhing on the ground in pain. I knew I had done something pretty bad to my left knee.
Unable to get up by myself, someone eventually came along and helped me up. Fortunately my wife was already in the gym. She drove me to the St. Mary's Emergency Room where I was diagnosed with a ruptured quad tendon. Tomorrow I have surgery to reattach it.
So I may be absent for a few days. I"m looking forward to the surgery so I can start to get back to normal.
Take care.
