Rustin had his second, and hopefully last, knee surgery today in Sacramento. The MD said the surgery went really well. Rustin's meniscus was torn, as suspected, and repaired nicely. And the "forgein body" behind his knee was also totally excised and the doctor said he'd never seen any thing like it before. He said, and I quote, "It was WEIRD looking tissue." So we're anxious to see what the pathology report has to say.
Overall, we are really happy with the surgery. This time around Rustin is less nauseated and his pain is better controlled! He's got a immbolization brace that he's to wear for at least 2 weeks that keeps his knee straight.
Here's a little video clip I got of Rustin in recovery...he is a little loopy from the pain meds/anesthesia. It's pretty funny, enjoy!

Rustin, brother...I think I just wet my pants. Hurry back to work, everyone misses you and we have a bucket of orange chicken and a 20 pound bag of ice waiting for you. Lisa, please find out what they gave him for the surgery and make SURE we have plenty of it left to slip into a random drink of Rustin's every now and then, you know, only on the rough days when we're feeling a little down.
