(Mostly) good news regarding my knee.  The doctor said the MRI showed my bone bruise has been healing nicely and I can ditch the crutches - but just "be careful".  The bad news is that there is definitely osteoarthritis in the knee, with so there will "probably" be issues like this down the road.

STILL can't add pictures.  Probably has to do with the new format Blogspot wants people to use that I have opted out of.  Tried it but (no surprise) found it confusing.  However I may have no choice but to suck it up and jump onto the learning curve....
