Sliced n' Diced

Aaron had knee surgery on Wednesday morning.

The surgery itself wasn't a big deal. He tore his medial meniscus, the cartilage that keeps the femur and tibia from rubbing on each other, a long time ago. The edges of the tear were frayed which caused him pain. They went in and shaved off the frayed edges. He was in and out in less than an hour, and the doctor said he knee looks great.

Of course, in true Aaron fashion, he had to overdo it Wed and Thursday so he's hurting a bit.

It's unfortunate that codeine makes him wired, rather than knocking him out like a normal person.

I'm trying very, very hard to be the patient wife. *grin*
