Camille has to have another surgery. It's a small one, but is any surgery in a hospital, under anesthesia, really very small? The big lump on her knee: the doctor said there was good news, and "okay" news. The good: the graft is intact. The "okay": the big lump is fluid, a possible infection, and the cause: the screws holding the graft in place, one is sticking out too much. I don't know if it loosened up, or just because it's a screw in there it maybe caused irritation/inflamation/possible infection, I don't know. Before these procedures, we are warned these are possibilities. The dr. has been very gracious and kind, but here we go again. Thursday, we're going to the hospital again. It's "stat" because of the possibility of infection, which they don't think is very likely because she doesn't have any fever, or redness or unusual warmth, just a big lump. So it might just be fluid.
She seems okay about it, I am concerned, but battling not to get upset.
In other news, all these millions of pieces jangling around in that big box turned into a new grill!Sunny....all nosey about the neighbors.

Busy, busy, as always! Praying for Cam's surgery and hoping it is only fluid and can be taken care of quickly and successfully! Watermelon sounds good! I think I need to find one for the weekend! Hugs!
I'm sorry about another surgery. Praying it goes smoothly and she heals quickly.
