Hello everyone! I'm thrilled to know I've entertained strangers on the internet! This took place last July, actually. As for how I did this, I'm just incredibly clumsy and landed on my left knee at just the wrong angle. To make matters worse, I was on vacation in Williamsburg VA and it was 110 degrees every day, and I had to walk everywhere with an black foam knee immobilizer that went from my ankle to my thigh. My proudest moment was when an 80 year old man had to help me down the stairs. My physical therapy paid off, and I'm back to normal, though apparently I'm a bit knock-kneed and need to be more careful. Thanks for all the good wishes!

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

I know your feels OP, I once dislocated my kneecap stepping backwards. You may have an issue with your kneecaps which causes them to dislocate easily. If it keeps happening get tests.

Mild hip dysplasia, apparently that makes me knock-kneed and makes my kneecaps more likely to go out. The doctor said it's more common than people think. Nothing to really do but watch how I walk.

I'm so sorry that happened. Hope you get better soon! Take care.

We're not strangers. We are FML.
