Coffee

So my new obsession is coffee. For someone who has never liked coffee I started to try a cappuccino every now and then. I found that I quite liked it, I did need to add sugar to it though as some cappuccinos I found could be bitter.

Then a few months ago I decided to try a flavoured latte. My choice was a caramel latte with cream topping. And from then I was hooked. It has got so bad that I have gone from nothing at all to buying a Tassimo coffee machine which has lots of yummy flavours for me to have.

Knee op

Well it's been a long time since I posted and a lot has happened.

I has a operation on my knee in February. It was called an MPFL reconstruction, it is done to stop my knee dislocating and it should stop all the pain I was in.

So in an MPFL reconstruction they take a ligament from my hamstring and it is drilled through my thigh bone and then it goes through my knee cap. This should, and has so far stopped my knee cap from dislocating.

I was ment to have the operation at my local hospital but the surgeon who normally does this operation had to go on long term sick leave. I had a phone call saying that I would have the operation at a private hospital. This hospital was one of the best I have been to. The new consultant was lovely and I was told that it would be day surgery instead of a couple of nights stay.

In February I went in to have my operation. All went according to plan, I went down at midday and was home by 10pm. I even walked out of the hospital which they were very surprised at.
