as long as i can still make it down the hall from my front door to the door to the building i'm still smoking... the day of surgery will probably be my last day...

first surgeon wanted to do a bone-patellar-bone, new surgeon is doing a donor transplant... got the full lowdown, except for the cartiledge stuff because he can't know how extensive the damage is until he's actually in there...
but yeah, got the full deal- even after care exercises and everything...

and while i've never had surgery before, my mom has had a lot so she's been hounding me to make sure i have people coming over regularly all that...
