Yeah. I mean, in all seriousness if you or I had surgery and that doctor performed it...he would have gave the same update. The good part to hear is he didn't get in and find a lot more damage than expected. Although, 2 torn ligaments and damage to a 3rd and meniscus injury is bad enough. I'd be interested in hearing more about how bad the meniscus is because that doesn't heal like a ligament. Once they have to take some out, it's gone. If anyone reads anything on that aspect, please share it.
