So here's the deal.
1) My doctor is awesome lol. He's so funny. He came in and basically said, "Well it's a no-shit-sherlock deal that you tore your ACL, so there's that." Heh. He said that I did as much damage possible without actually destroying my knee or breaking any bones lol.
2) Only my ACL is torn. There is some damage to a few ligaments/tendons that connect to my calf, but those will heal on their own. I will have to have surgery without a doubt, but there's no rush.
3) I can't have surgery until the swelling in my leg goes down. So it'll be at least a month before surgery, and in the mean time I have to get and go to physical therapy for prehabilitation.
4) And that's basically it. All of it.
Nothing I wasn't expecting. A little annoyed at the swelling bit, but I suppose it's for the best. Chris will most likely be going to China now, and I'll be able to hobble-walk for another month. Cool beans.

Fantastic news! What a relief that only the ACL is torn and no fractures. But too bad about having to wait a month for surgery.
Just great, Lisa!! Only have that ACL to worry about. We will do all we can to help you endure the month before surgery.
