You can go here to read Part 1: The Great Break, which as my first operation.
My second knee operation occurred about a year after my first. It may not have been quite that long.
This one was to remove the two pins they used to set my broken femur. How they got the pins out of my bone is a mystery to me. As you can see in the picture there was no head on the pins – at least not when they gave them to me. Maybe there was at one point and the Doctors just pried them out like you would a nail from wood.
So, surgery number two and another round of crutches and rehab. The fun is just beginning.
At this point in my life I hadn’t yet started bodybuilding. I was into skateboarding back then (had no choice but to stop playing soccer) and I was a skinny little runt.
