Thanksgiving

The month of November was very mild. I was picking tomatoes and zucchinis till the mild of November. November was also the time of Cindy's knee replacement. She had dealt with the problems of having no ACL and the wear on her bones because of no cartilage to cushion the bones as they move back and forth
The night before her surgery we started the Christmas family home evenings at our house.

She went in  on November 22 for her surgery on her right knee. Here is the before picture of her knee.

Then it was off to the hospital and Cindy's preparation for surgery.

In a little more than an hour she was done and then another 40 minutes she was wheeled into her room where we were anxious to greet her.

She spent the night there and then the next morning she learned her exercises and was ready to go home with her new knee.

The next morning was Thanksgiving and we were so grateful that she was home and doing so well with her healing. Payton had to show us what she had done at school to get ready for Thanksgiving.                                                  

We had a wonderful dinner prepared by all the girls so Cindy could rest and recover.

After dinner was games and good time. It was a wonderful Thanksgiving especially to have Cindy home and see her recovering.
