Dad update

In case anyone's been kept up at night worried about it, Dad had knee surgery on his left knee on Saturday last weekend. The nerve blocker they used was really good, but of course when it wore off the next day wasn't so good. He's got a hard brace on his whole leg. Within a month he'll get the same surgery on the other one, followed by some 6 months of rehab. :( Could be worse! It turns out that he'd torn both knee-quad tendons 3/4 of the way through.
