Prayer warrior forum brothers, one of our own needs them.

Post by cshold »

Got a PM this morning from Mike (rjohns94) that he
tore his Medial Collateral Ligament yesterday in his left knee.
No details other than that. I hope he doesn't mind me mentioning
it to you guys. So send one up for our brother sometime today.

Thanks :D

Thank you all for the prayers. The MCL is one of the stabilizing ligaments of the knee joint, it opposes the ACL, the anterior crucial ligament. It appears that the cartildge (medial miniscus and the MCL) were torn. More MRI's tomorrow. Talk with the surgeon on Friday. I Thank you all for the prayers. It humbles me to have friends across the country and into Canada and across the pond to mother England, taking their valuable time to pray for me. I thank you each and every one. I am blessed by your generosity of self. Will keep you posted when I know more.

Get well, good luck to ya. I tore mine and waited awhile. Had it fixed and no problem now. Best advice I could give is do your physical therapy as instructed. This will help greatly.

Mike,
FWIW that's the same surgery Rusty Jr. had to have done several years ago. Sorry to say, but it wasn't a cake walk. His involved a titanium bolt place in one of the bones to tie off a graft to.
