So At 1:30 am this moring my oldest son, Chris Wakes me up and says" Mom's car won't start and it's at his friends". I say, "Ok, we'll look at it in the morning. Probably just needs a battery" . He says "yeah but Codie(brother) is in his friends car in the driveway with a broken knee,he slipped and fell at a party.. Half asleep I say HuH? :thinking:

. I get the same story again. We get him in my truck and off to the Emergency room we go. Got home at 4 this morning. The Doc reset it there but we have to go to a Orthopedic tomorrow or Tuesday. Dislocated knee cap/Patella. Kinda tired today.

What a trip.

I understand what you guy's are saying. Figured this would happen out riding some day instead of at a party. Atleast I know if my knee cap is hanging off to the side I just need to straighten my leg out till it rolls back in place. :doh:

Spent most of today wasteing time to see his Primary doctor to say he needs to go to a orthopedic doctor and picking up his xrays from the ER. Some how it sucks that it was actually better than working ? :prof:

I was actually thinking same thing ( now I know just straighten leg and fixed). Well hope he doesnt need surgery.

What part is better than work drivng around from place to place or having a busted knee ??? :noidea:

TWS · Jun 16, 2010

It's not my Knee.

Driving around from place to place becomes hard work after awhile.Specialy when it's at least 3-4 hundred miles a day.. The general public(customers) and the office isn't quit a bowl of cherries either. So it that case it was better than work.
