The before...

This is J's knee today...



By this afternoon, J's knee will be swathed in bandages as he recovers from knee surgery. And while it is surgery- it's not his first (or even his second!) procedure on this same knee, so we've pretty much got the routine down... I've stocked up on some of J's favorite foods for his recovery. We've picked up his pain meds and (since our bedroom is upstairs) I have the couch made up with blankets and pillow for him to sleep on...

So if you think of J around 11:15 am, pst- say a quick prayer for him. And say a quick prayer for me as well as I try to keep things calm and quiet at home while he recovers!
