My Second Dislocation

Last Friday when I was working my kneecap popped out of place. I was on a ladder getting some baby clothes and I twisted my torso but not my knee and that is when I heard the pop. I looked down and my kneecap was sitting on the side of my knee. One of my managers came in and started screaming. After about five minutes we were able to get me off of the ladder. I got to a chair, sat down and straightened my leg and shoved my kneecap back into place. It hurt pretty bad but lately it keeps getting worse. I hurt my ligament and the triangle-shaped bone covering the knee (patella) is hurt.  For now I have to wear a brace for three weeks and walk as little as possible. If it isn't healed by then, I have to go to the doctor and maybe get surgery! What a great start to my summer :)
