The COVID-19 Diary: Friday 13 May

I had a fun day.

I was in a car accident around 1 AM. (Wasn’t my fault.) Fortunately no one was hurt, but I had to have my car towed.

I slipped getting out of the tow truck and fell squarely on my right knee. Now it’s time for the ambulance and the emergency room. I thought I had dislocated my knee, but it turns out I have a fractured patella, which according to the doctor is better (relatively speaking) than a dislocated knee, because that can involve ligament damage, etc. And I have a nice, clean break. Two pieces. Apparently some people come in with fractured kneecaps that look like jigsaw puzzles.

Anyway, I don’t have a car to drive and even if I did I can’t drive because my right leg is in an immobilizer. Fortunately, there’s not a lot of pain.

More to come.

Stay healthy and safe.
