bktheirregularOr however it goes.
Kid brother is home from the hospital today, with a freshly carved knee, a big honkin' brace to hold it steady, and an elaborate machine to flex the knee for hours at a time while he's flat on his back.
It kinda got shoved to the back of my mind, with the test, but I'm glad he pulled through.
Though I didn't need to get blow-by-blow descriptions of all the things he was plugged into; he had an epidural whoozit plugged into his spine to block pain, and he said that hurt like a [censored] when it got pulled out, and that's not even at the top of the squick list. I won't say more.
All things considered, though, I'm also glad that I'm not gonna be the one stuck with taking care of him for weeks and months while the knee heals...
