A patient is patient- Part 1


Maybe you are wondering why in the world both husband and wife decided to have a knee surgery! It is along story to tell but I will share it anyway. Here it goes: Glenda's left knee problem happened when she did the jumping rope in Coshocton, OH. She twisted it and heard a loud clicky sound and fall with a painful scream. It happened in July. At that time we need to travel to Tennesse and Idaho for Gertjan's training and orientation. To make the story short, we only apply home remedies to ease the swelling and pain for two and a half years.
As for Gertjan, it maybe a work related issue. Since he started to work in the hangar with all the different positions, he might torn his meniscus. Anyhow, we got all the insurance permission to go ahead with the MRI and surgery in Singapore. So that was a praise point ( eventhough for Filipino saying, its better to have no insurance as long as we are healthy, we don't care)!
