Yay, injection time!

[tinhuvielartanis]

I went to see Dr. Keith today. He reiterated that I needed to have surgery on my left knee immediately at which time I reminded him that I have no insurance, could he please work with me. Boy did he! He injected my left knee and gave me a prescription for pain medicine, and he did all this at no charge whatsoever. I loves me some Dr. Keith. Yes I do, yes I do.

In a year's time, I'm sure I'll be having surgery, Goddess Willing. Meanwhile, I'll be a pill head so I can scamper about and do my job without crying like a babe in swaddling.

::sends you silver plated new kneecaps and industrial size bottles of painkiller::

Man, I hope you can get the surgery sooner rather than later, hon. My knees are no where near what you're dealing with, but the happy popcorn noises they're making tells me I may not be long for some injections myself.

::snogs you and whimpers about last night's Lost::

meep! I haven't seen it yet. Aunt Tudi taped it for me. Was it good?

As for our knee nobs, maybe between the two of us, we'd make one good walking person.

I should take you ice skating and tell you to bend your knees more...and then take my hockey stick and hit you in the knee....you know, out of love.

:thinks: Would it be possible to get Medicaid temporarily? I'm not sure how your state works but if insurance is unavailable at your job maybe there's something the state would offer?

:kisses your pour knees and rubs liniment on them:

Fie! Knees are overrated.

[popfiend.livejournal.com]

No. They aren't.

Really.

I love my knees.

And I tell them that all the time so they don't rebel on me.

Tin: do me a favor? Find out what programs both the federal gov't and your state offer you might be surprised.

Use Google-fu.

[popfiend.livejournal.com]

I know exactly what you were doing.

I was appeasing the knee gods.

OW.
