Kevin, I'm sorry you tore a meniscus. I had one for about 25 years before it got bothering me enough that the doctor said he had better clean it up. In that 25-year wait they perfected the arthroscopic method, so it wasn't as bad as when my dad has it done when I was a teenager. Knee pads are a must. I should have worn them more over the years. I have been impressed with how you have made great use of that previously wasted space in your home. You have a nice open area like our house. Many today use trusses that would make it much more difficult to get around!
Elliot, yes the gel kneepads are really nice! I wish I had used them years ago. That knee I was telling Kevin about needs replaced now, but it seems my insurance wants to keep pumping it full of shots until I can go on medicare in 2 1/2 years and they can wash their hands of me.! LOL
