Sounds good, mc! I don't even remember having stitches but I'm sure I did, must have. Glad your pain is manageable. You're doing great. I'm okay too, spending my days in the recliner, watching tv/ sleeping, snuggling with the dog, lol. GC is up and about well enough to fix me breakfast (hot drink, scrambled egg, toast) every day. No complaints except feeling useless and guilty, lol! But ... it is what it is, I must let this knee heal.
