Busted Knee

I hurt me knee. I had a blog post written about it and now it is gone, lost in cyber space I suppose.

I went to the doctor and she believes that I have done a few things to my knee. I either have a bad strain or a tear to the LCL in my right knee. I may also have some damage to the lateral meniscus. As you can imagine this is both painful, uncomfortable, and inconvenient.

I am on crutches and trying to rest it as much as possible until I see the ortho doctor, hopefully very soon. I desire to be patient and rest in know that God is in control, but I am ready to get a complete diagnosis and treatment plan set up. I am discouraged by my inability to do things on my own, and my mom is not helping much. It is hard to realize that even simple tasks are impossible right now!

I am worried about what the next few weeks may hold, I have a vacation schedule for the end of next week through July 10th, so I am hoping that I will get to enjoy that time away. I am also concerned that I might miss out on the mission trip to Mexico.

Please pray that I will have a miraculous healing and that I can be pain-free soon. I cannot imagine many more days like today. It is hard to function in the "real world" while in crutches and having this constant pain in my knee. God is bigger than this injury and I know He has planned this for a reason, I just want to be obedient through this and rest in HIM. Please pray that I will do so!

Here is a fun icture from last year in Mexcio!
I'm praying that I will get to do this again this year.
