I should have known.
These days there are no "user serviceable parts".

Yeah, it voids the manufacurer's warranty if you try to service it yourself! LT, sorry to hear about you being extra sick! I haven't been on in a few days much myself, so I didn't notice. I'm sorry. I would have PM'd you too to say hi! My prayers are with you, and I hope you get back to %100 soon!

Spray the knee with a good dose of Gun Scrubber and follow up with some Gun Butter. Works to cure 1911's, so ought to work on you!!
Seriously, glad to hear you are progressing well. I hope you are able to make the TSRA convention so we can get to have a face-toface meeting!

If it works for a 1911 it has to be good for me.

Probably my last needed report here on my knee unless something changes a lot & I sure hope not.
Theropy Monday, yesterday 2-25.
Did the progress evaluation & they said I had reached all goals set for my exit. My original completion date was to be March 13. I am almost 3 weeks ahead of schedule. I will finish this week of supervised rehab & decide what I think I need to work on for the next month of aftercare. I will go in & do what I think I need or want to. After the month of aftercare I can go in for the rest of my life for $2.00 a time. Cant find a fitness center for that price.
I credit your prayers, prayers of our church, & the grace of Jesus for my extreemly fast & complete recovery. Dr. Guse did a great job & I do thank the Lord for training him so well.
I am climbing stairs frontward like normal people, and going up & down backward like rehab folks.
Balance has returned & I can walk a 4" beam. I climb 12" stairs or go down the same frontward. My leg is streight now for the fisrt time in yrs. I can carry weight w/in reason. I have carried 40lb or so boxes of groceries from the vehicle to house w/ no problem. Walk 2 miles on it w/ no problems. I think I am ready to rejoin the real working people at "the job that needs to be done" what ever that is at the time.
No more whinin & cryin, sayin 'I cant do that cause of my knee." Get up, get busy, & geter done.
Thank you all for your prayers & care.
LT
