My surgery went OK on Friday. My ATFL was repaired and my OCD was debrided and microfractured. I'm in pain, but that is to be expected at this point.

It is really good to see you are back Callaway. I couldn't help but smile at the OCD bit.

Thanks Renaeden.  OCD stands for Osteochondral Defect, which is a hole in my talus which was fractured with a little hammer and an awl so blood vessels could grow back into it.  The hole is because a small part of the bone died and the cartilage above it was disconnected from the bone, so the doctor cut that bit away and removed the dead bone.

Wishing you speedy healing, Callaway, from a Triple-T veteran (tibial tubercle transposition). TLAs FTW! ;D

I'm glad it went well.

Thanks, SleepyDragon.

What was wrong that you needed to have this?  Was it your knee?

Welcome back. Sorry about your mate, though. :(
Hopefully the chemo and radiation will work out for him.

By the time I got in Teusday it was almost midnight. I got my sleep schedule back to West coast time and I have been hauling trash to the dump and helping move stuff for a friend who is moving. He has bladder cancer and the chemo/radiation is getting him down or he would have been moved by the time I got back. London and Canterbury were outstanding to visit. Trafalger Square, the National Galleries, St James Park, the British Museum and other places were all great. I'll post more later when I feel like going through the 600 + pictures on my card. Now I want to visit France or Portugal within the next year if things work out.

It sounds like you saw a lot.  I look forward to the pictures.

I bought a card reader yesterday so I don't have to run down my camera batteries. One drawback of a 2004 computer is no card reader.

I need to check this thread more often. I didn't realize you had your surgery. I'm glad it's overwith. I know you were nervous. Sending you speedy healing vibes, but take it easy and let your body heal in the time it needs to. Easier said than done when you have kids. :hug:

PPK ~ Glad to see you back and looking forward to your pics! :)
