"why does my knee look like a basketball?"

So today like any other day has had its ups and its downs. The morning was fine, I woke up and was able to do some light physical therapy, and then by mid morning we had a full house. Rachels dad, and brother were at the apartment along with one of Rachels friend from high school Lauren. For awhile there it was nice to sit back and listen to their conversations, laugh and smile while I watched them play with the dogs. Then at around 2:00 I got up to use the restroom and when I got back Rachel noticed that my right foot (same side as the surgery) was turning purple. So we snapped a photo of it and took off the the Emergency Room per my surgeons orders.

After being getting some crazy tests done, a ultrasound and some other test, they determined that my leg wasn't getting proper circulation. Something along the lines of the blood was flowing down to my foot but not flowing back up. All I know is that something keeps trying to knock me down and every time that it tries I turn around and say I don't think so. I'm going to make it through this.
