A Very Tired Geordie

after his walk with Jim this morning.

Orthopaedic appointment went ok. Consultant pretty sure Anterior Cruciate Ligament is torn, but doesn’t know how badly, so he’s ordering an MRI. That will happen in about 4 weeks.
Cruciate ligaments don’t repair themselves and usually require surgery, but they no longer do the operation on people over 50!!!
So I will get physiotherapist to strengthen the muscles to help support the knee, and that’s it.
I admit I’m a bit taken aback.

I wasn’t planning on taking up football, but I think I’m reasonably active, or was.
I’ve got a lot to think about.
