So we hoped that the news was going to be "quick recovery with no surgery". Instead Babe has been told that his knee injury resulted in a dislocated knee cap, fracture with a floating chip and a torn ligament which will all need surgery to repair. Poor guy has had to walk like this for over a week, now I completely understand why he's been in so much pain even though I can't even fathom what it's like.
His orthopedic surgeon told him that in order to repair his ligament, they'll need to find a donated one and hopefully go in arthroscopically next Thursday. My biggest concern will be that this happens again. Apparently that's what they're trying to avoid. All we can do is pray that it goes as expected.
