Stay up, Giggy. All we can do is take it one day at a time, and sometimes one minute at a time. Hopefully, the next doc will fix the fukup the last one left behind and the first lawyer will find you a pot of gold. Just think; no more work, lots of money to build every car/truck you ever wanted, and a mansion with a huge garage to hold 'em all.
I know a pain free working knee would be top priority, but all the pain and bullshit you've had to deal with is worth ample compensation. I've never sued anyone, but that butcher has it coming.
