Bum Knee--Jude is feeling "Out of Sorts"
OK, so this is the deal. In 1997 the soap holder in the wall of the stickhouse shower came loose and fell out. So a piece of plastic was duct taped over the resulting hole in the wall, until it could be fixed. But shower water compromised the tape and the plastic slipped off while Jude was taking a shower.
And you get the picture. Jude slipped on the plastic and twisted her left knee in a way that it should never have twisted.
A rejection of surgery, several months in a knee brace, about a year & a half on a cane, and 8 years of carefully monitoring the climbing of stairs and mountains etc. -- and here we are. Jude's knee gave out and down she went for a ten count.
Now she's back in a brace, using a cane, and awaiting insurance approval for an MRI to assess the situation.
When we know the facts, well make a team decision as to the best solution for The Crew.
It's good to know Jude isn't in this mess alone.
