Knee, Kneel, Knee

 My knee has been painful for more than 30 years.  A doctor once told me that i would have a knee replacement before I was 60.  I have exceeded that prediction.  Over the years I have had a couple of shots and a couple of rounds of physical therapy.  I am in the middle of that second round of PT.

After the shot I had last week I was hopeful that my problems were solved for a while.  The pain I had for virtually the past year was so much better I thought I was good to go for another few years.  But, a few days later, I am back to the limp and some off the pain.

I am not sure where I am going with this.  I really don't want a knee replacement.  I dread that surgery.  It scares me.  But, not walking is worse when I think about that.  So, I am trying to trust and pray.  I will have to do whatever it is I need to do.

Right now my thoughts are on my knee and what will happen with it.  But, I keep doing the stretches and hope for  the best.
