Yesterday, I saw Mr. S, the osteo surgeon who replaced my worn out right knee. The right knee replacement is great, and even though I still have some pain from the operated on compartment syndrome, all is ok with it.
Left knee.. *sigh* bends back and forth ok, but it also moves left to right too easily. That means the osteo-arthritis is getting worse, and I'm losing knee stability. And today, unlike other times, my left knee fekking HURTS. Have compression/support bandage on it. Between that and pain meds, I'm able to walk somewhat normally. I did have to order another compression bandage, as the velcro on the one I'm using is worn out and tends to let go. So, the time of LTKR is coming closer. Just not yet.
Today was appointment with D, my counselor. Because of pain meds, I was all over the place. But I was able to focus on the one thing that is stressing me out; tomorrow, Trance and Loki get home visit by the vet, and Loki gets boxed up to get his teeth cleaned. He really needs it, as he has really bad breath. If the vet that gave wrong advise that caused Keito's death shows up, I will show him the door. Call out fee be damned.
Also, discussed the possibility of getting another purrkid. She said the way we love animals, and how much they mean to us, there is probably no way we won't, when we're heart healed and read, get another rescue or two. I personally would love a 'house panther', or maybe a bonded pair looking to be re-homed together. Just not yet... not ready. I, and Loki, are still in mourning over Keito's sudden death.
