I ended up on the floor with a popped kneecap. People were really kind and came over right away and helped me as I lay there in pain glad I had worn black tights and hoping I was not exposing more than my dignity. Our fire department and first aid came, and then Jack picked me up and took me to a Urgent Care Center. The Doctor informed me that my patella had violently luxated. So as of now I am in a brace on crutches and spending this weekend with my swollen and bruised knee propped up on pillows with ice packs. Of course it is our busy time so I have to be in work for Monday at 5:30am. I have to see an Orthopedic Doctor to find out if I have done any damage but I did not break anything according to the x-rays. All in all it's mostly the challenge of trying to get around on the crutches. So I am asking for prayers that I have only bruised the kneecap and not torn anything and will not require surgery.  |
Ouch, sorry to hear this.
I hope you feel better soon.

LOL!
