Yesterday, just before my Mom put the pads on my knees for my tens unit, my knee made the biggest crack! It wasn’t just a’pop;” it was a HUGE crack! My knee was bent and it felt funny so I shook my hands and asked my Mom to straighten it out in an almost breathless panic. As she did, it cracked louder than it ever has before! It was immediately accompanied with two of my screams just as crests stung my eyes.
There is no medical explanation for this for all the times I’ve been to see Dr. Moore since my surgery. I just saw him last Thursday and I will post about that a little bit later. So, I didn’t feel well yesterday following the big crack with my knee and it was raining! So you know, I’m just gonna blame it on the rain!:
I thought this song as I heard the rain outside and I knew that, “The rain don’t mind and the rain don’t care. You know you got to blame it on something…” I’ve figured out that when I am in this much pain, it’s best to just sleep.
I was in a very deep sleep but I dreamt about when I woke up from surgery. I didn’t even open my eyes and said, “My knee hurts!” I then looked over to a nurse on a computer and asked if I just had surgery. When she told me yes, I asked why it felt like was crying. She told me that’s because I was. I asked if that was normal. She told me that it was. Well, I woke up from my nap yesterday and my knee felt exactly like it did after surgery! Why on earth is this happening?! I looked at the lights on my tens unit that I keep clipped to the front pocket of my hoodie.
They were barely let up green. That’s why my knee hurt! I needed a new battery! I have already bought three batteries! These batteries are $9 a piece! My Nom came back by and I showed her my tens unit. I was sad. My knee hurts! She hugged me and I cried.
