first PT

today I went to PT. it wasn't that bad cept for the weird shocking machine Mike hooked up to my leg. I can already bend my knee to 90 degrees and can straighten it the whole way out :) was there for a while and yeah that's pretty much it for everything exciting about today's PT. Already trying to beg mom into letting me go back to school so I don't go insane in this house but other than being able to go the SOCCER!!!!!!!! game friday(and hopefully saturday) and the rally on thursday(which is in school but only for an hour and then i have to go home:( that's all i get to do :( BOOHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :...( (that was supposed to be me crying:) talk to ya later!

pneumonia, exercises, Sweetie and grandma, and Matt

found out today my mom has pneumonia and it looks like she's having a LOT of fun w/ that! i actually did a whole entire exercise thingy today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i'm so proud of myself and i didn't even mess up and make my knee do something it isn't supposed to do for a couple of months like i did yesterday! i'm really very proud of myself. Sweetie got a really good workout today cause grandma and grandpa Goswick came over while mom and dad where at the ER and Sweetie kept jumping on the bed( which i didn't completely mind but it was driving grandma insane :) so Sweetie kept being put on the floor and she would go back and on the floor again and back and forth and back and forth and back and forth and back and forth!!! it made my morning very interesting :) o yeah the exercises took me about 2 hours to finish and i have to do the same thing 2 more times today(course i should've done them the same amount of time and times ever since the day after surgery but yeah please don't tell the dr. davison or mike about it!). Matt was really nice and bought a bunch of donuts ok let me ask u! usually if something is on top of a donut or cupcake isn't it usually a sugar label thing??????????????? Well the one i ate wasn't but it still tasted pretty good ;) anyways we had a lot of fun laughing at THAT!

exercise time!

Yesterday started doing exercises and boy was THAT fun! it took me like 20 mins. to wake up my quads or something because they sure weren't moving! all of a sudden though they kinda woke up and I was able to start doing the stuff. i have to do 3 sets of 10 of everything 3 x's a day so this is going to be really tiring cause it took me forever to do just 1 set of an exercise. and THANK GOD FOR THAT WONDERFUL ICE MACHINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't know how I would've survived the pain by now if all I'd had was some frozen corn to ice my leg! I had fun putting my leg back in the brace it had been in for a couple of weeks cause one of the incisions was right where a painfully hard plastic section is so I ended up getting my mom to ace the area up and am ignoring it right now since the plastic isn't touching it. I guess I better stop procrastinating my exercises and go do them so I'll write later!

Doc and Fruit




Went to the doctor this morning and here is a picture of my knee. Tried to take a nap afterwards and that didn't happen. Got a sweet fruit arrangement delivered today from G &G Merringer. Tastes real good.

This hurts more than I thought it would

OUCH!

Katy is in much pain. She came out of surgery wanting to puke! We brought home an electrical funky ice machine that is attached to her leg. Bandage is from her foot to her hip. Doctor said that all went well. Katy said that she didn't think that it would hurt this bad. She was planning on going up to her room. There is no way that she can get upstairs. She will blog when she is feeling better. Thanks for all the prayers!

my leg in a brace before(i never realized the brace was that big!)

surgery tomorrow

well I thought I'd try this out since I think it's really cool and Brett went to all the trouble of making it for me :). tomorrow's surgery and I'm pretty nervous, but I know God's in control and a lot of people are praying for me so here goes nothing!
