Oh man when I was 16 years old going into my junior year of high school I tore my ligaments in my knee in the back part of it which I think is what your wife has done. It is/was painful as hell. I hobbled around on crutches for quite a while. Besides recieving the wrath of my father. I was grounded the entire summer. It was horrible.
I feel quite sorry for her. And to do injury to two knees? OUCH! I did not have kids at home like she has pof course me being a teenager, and it sure ruined my supposedly best summer of my life :(
I cannot imagine trying to take care of a family hurt like that. Especially mine who are all spoiled rotten from me taking care of them/waiting on them hand and foot. It is something I enjoy I must say taking care of them but sometimes when you are down it gets frustrating they do not step up like I would expect them too.
I have had two back operations and had been out of commision for quite a while before and after with both of them and know how hard it is to take care of a family so I surely sympathize with her. Give her my best.
That is good to hear you all have chipped in to help her :)
I have read your wife's lj before and am a fan of her writings :) Her Madame Verdi is it called? has quite stumped me as well as intriguing me at the same time :)
I do so ramble on so forgive me..
