I neglected to post a blog update about Chad's most recent visit with the Orthopedic Surgeon. Everything went very well. They took new X-Rays and everything looks the same (it was explained that that is a GOOD thing). He was instructed to continue not putting any weight on his knee for another two weeks. This is laughable because he's been walking for weeks now.
The lady said, that is what she has to put on paper but when I explained what he had been doing already, she told us to keep doing what he's been doing, just not any more. In about a week he's supposed to start a few more exercises. He was cleared for light duty at work for sometime next week I believe. It all depends if his work will let him return.
Our follow-up appointment will be on June 12, 2018. So provided he doesn't do anything stupid and further injure himself (which is my biggest fear), his recovery has gone well thus far!
Thanks for your love and support!
This is the story of Chad's fight against Appendix Cancer. On January 7, 2015 Chad found out just how special he was when he was told that not only did he have Cancer but it was extremely rare and very aggressive. Chad has always taken life by storm - so why stop now? Some may have crumpled and fell but the soldier in him took over and he decided then and there he had an infinite number of reasons to kick Cancer's ass. The road will never be easy but he will fight - and he will win.
Return to work with bubble wrap Chad! It's the only way! LOL
