I spent one of the few good nights, if not the best, since my surgery.
I feel one hundred times better. Also, the therapist yesterday has worked so hard on my knee to loosen up the scarring tissues that my knee has regained most of its shape.
I can't extend my leg yet but as I did my straight leg raise, I could feel how easier and smoother it was.
I got an email from a friend who had a pretty bad knee accident (also skiing) years ago and she's urging me to do my physical therapy with diligence as well as icing my knee with regularity. I've been recommended the same and I follow these advice with a religious fervor.
It helps that I am disciplined to start with and that I love physical activity.
The weather is gorgeous here in the foothills and although I miss a good hike in the sun, I start my day on a good foot, if I can say!
