It's been just over six weeks since the surgery and things are going very well. The incision is now a scar as you can see here and is almost four inches long. I went to the doctor yesterday and he told me that I could ditch the brace - so I happily threw it away before I left the building! I pretty much have the range of motion totally back, so it's a matter of building up strength again, and breaking down some scar tissue that's still inside the knee - mostly just below the kneecap.
Every two or three weeks I get to drop some exercises and add others. This has generally resulted in less time spent per day, but tougher workouts. I'm now down from over three hours a day to about an hour and a half, so it's just a matter of staying the course and consistently doing this stuff for the next several months. If all goes well the knee should be back to 100% by about the end of the year.

Great news!
That is exciting, it was good to see Todd up and around at family meeting! Spencer's Kiddie Kandid pictures were seriously the cutest ever! They did such a good job at getting him to smile! The one I took with his dimples so big is precious!
