1/21/2021 – Thursday – sports doctor visit and tennis blunder

HAL – write note to board about personnel policies.

Received cartoon from Toni Koweek.
Appointment with Dr Pregont about my knees, especially my left knee. He has questions about where the pain was and then he felt around and pressed on the knee in various directions. At his direction I flexed my knee various directions. Then he looked over at the x-rays and said well this confirms what the x-rays told me. You have arthritis in both knees.

I asked him what I need to do to preserve my knees as long as possible. He said that I should go on doing what I I have been doing. Playing tennis,walking, keeping active. He spoke of Cortizone shots in the future if needed. Gave me referral to PT.


Tennis lesson.

Got hit in the eye during volleying drill. Held racquet up on edge in front of my face. Ball smacked my glasses bending the frame.  Drew a little blood.

Zoom with Bill and Nancy. She spoke briefly but in ten minutes she was slumped back.
