Even Therapists Take Vacations

   I learned today that Sandie, my physical therapist, will be away next week on vacation.  So next week,  I'll have a different therapist.  The Government has July 3 as the end date of my therapy, and so I can't skip a week and wait for Sandie to return.  She will be back in time for my 2 last sessions, and to write up my paperwork.  The week after that, I return to the P.A. in East Greenbush office this time; I don't know what to expect from him.  After that, I believe I'll see the surgeon, don't know what to expect there either.  At initial consultation, he was reserved in his suggestions, advising that I may want to go home and think about it and  talk it over before deciding on surgery.  But in the hospital, he blithely said for me to have the other knee replaced also, and Danny said he used the word terrible or awful or such to describe the knee, so who knows what lies ahead.  Everybody has to be somewhere.
