Evidently this thing with my leg has been going on for a long time. Tedi kept telling me it looked like my knees were giving me trouble. I insisted I had no pain, and she thought I was just being macho. Now that my leg stopped working at all, it is clear to me it has been coming on for years. I am back walking without crutches now. Either they are going to do surgery, injections, or nothing. I am working on a decision. I have conflicting opinions from different doctors. I have to make a decision within the next week, because I want to make it to the National. I won't be in the ring, but I do plan to be there to blog. Unless someone asks me not to. Evan L.
