Knee Update

Alex saw an Orthopedic Specialist on Wednesday who confirmed that he does have a tear in his MCL, but also possibly in his ACL as well. However, he doesn't think that either tear is bad enough to require surgery, but he still wants Alex to go for an MRI to be 100% sure. They can't get him in for that until next week so we still have to wait for the final results. For right now he has a brace that he is wearing and he is actually feeling much better. He can walk on it quite a bit without the cruthces and he has been able to stretch it more and more each day. We'll update again next week after we have MRI results. Until then we will just continue to pray that the knee can heel on its own and no surgery is needed.
