THANK YOU for my new knee, my life, your selfless sacrifice, and for everything else, I LOVE MY NEW KNEE.

I’m sorry to be a week late here on my 4th anniversary of you guys straightening out my leg and life, but on the exact day and moment of my 4 year anniversary of you guys putting me on a direct course to joy, happiness, optimism, hope and success, I crashed my bike, and it’s been a very tough week, I’m getting better now, and I just wanted to say THANK YOU, my new knee is FANTASTIC, I could not ask for more from it, I do everything that I want, I have no pain, or limitations I take no medications, I just wish that the rest of my body was as great as my new knee, and that I hadn’t waited so long to get it done,

THANKS for my new life,
THANKS for your professionalism and patience,
THANKS for EVERYTHING
