I am lying in bed with a heavy steel / plastic brace on my leg holding
it rigid. The pain killers aren't bad :) but I am not looking forward
to 6 or eight weeks or more with the brace.

I was carrying a box to go out to the GMC to begin packing for our
trip to Florida and then on to the GMCMI convention in Louisiania. I
tripped over something and fell face down, bending my glasses and
cutting my face -- but worst of all was slamming my knee into the
concrete floor. It immediately swelled up. I went for an Xray and was
told that my knee cap was now in two pieces. I then went to an
orthopeadic surgeon who said that the pieces were lined up very well
so he wants to try immobilizing my leg and knee to see if it will
heal. He will take more Xays next week and if it is still in place I
will have to wear the brace for 6 to 8 weeks or more. If it doesn't
stay lined up he will operate. Either way I cannot drive so we have
cancelled our vacation plans. I will miss seeing many of you at the
Convention. I hope everyone has a good time and that you eat a lot of
that great Cajun cooking.

I guess I will have a lot of time to be on the Internet now.
