Have you ever noticed how injuries never come at the right time, then again I don’t know of a right time for an injury.

One thing is for sure when you do get an injury the key to being back on your feet as soon as possible is having good people looking after you.

I have recently damaged my right knee, this is also my good leg, so I have found my movements have slowed a great deal, the simple things like having a shower and hopping to the toilet are now done with a lot more care, riding my motorbike or driving the car also provide a few headaches, at least I am confident the pain is only temporary.. well so I hope. As an amputee I don’t spend much time if any worrying about what is not there, but when what is there gets damaged, well that’s a whole new ball game.

Fortunately for me the problem was picked up pretty early by the great team at Osteo Health Group in Beaumaris, I was quickly sent of for a MRI from my doctor at the VIS, and I can not begin to tell you how grateful I am for the caring people at Victoria House Medical Imaging. The next step is the arthroscopy and again I am thankful for the helpful team at The Windsor who have made the process seamless to date.

It is comforting when you know you are in good hands and fortunately for me I have had a great experience with my surgen Jonathan Bare, he will again take care of proceeding, so from all accounts I will be up and going in no time.

Remember to look after your body…we only get one.

Cheers
