The many years is fantastic.  The knee thing sucks.  Have two of them and worry each time they swell up!  A year can be a long time!  We have a saying in our house when something like that happens,  "Get Your Tough Skins ON!"  A/Ho Joe

That is a mixed bag! Good news on the years that your wife has been able to put up with you! Tough for the knees.  Will add prayers for your recovery.

Happy Anniversary and I'm real sorry about the knee. I'm glad they found the infection before it got out of control.
