<p>S had surgery this morning (at our local hospital) with a very good prognosis for eventual healing and use. Dr had presented the range of possible problems and surgical solutions, and once the scopes were in, it became clear that the cartilage is fully intact, so no bone graft needed, and no open incisions. YAY! I won’t post further here, unless someone has specific questions- I know a heck of a lot more about this condition than I did two weeks ago :)</p>
<p>Thanks to each of you for your suggestions and concern when I needed it.</p>
<p>So glad to hear such positive feedback from the surgery. How nice you went local… makes every aspect of this easier, going forward. Hope he gets to enjoy the last of the Olympics before the flame is extinguished… the hockey game on Sunday should be epic!!</p>
