Been There Done That..........But JDare Must Have Borrowed My T-Shirt

Well, here we go again. 

There will be knee surgery again for JDare.  Not only does she have to have surgery again, but because of her busy schedule (you know like graduating from high school, teaching summer school, the matter of rehabilitation, her desire to enjoy our summer vacation, starting college in August etc.....) the only time left for surgery was the day before she turns 18. 

On a positive note, I suppose she will be celebrating her birthday here at home with her parents and brother!  Isn't this the way every 17 year old dreams of celebrating their 18th birthday? 

Perhaps she will realize that although 18 is a significant number in the life of every person younger than 18, it really IS just another number.  She will be able to vote, yes, but will she even know WHO is running for the various offices??????  We will see! (I crack myself up) 

On the matter of knee surgery, I hope she isn't in a race with her parents.  Between her father and I, we have endured almost 20 knee surgeries.  All jokes aside, I sincerely hope though for her sake that this is the last time that she goes THERE and does THAT!!
