I haven't been in the forum for a while, after 2 1/2 years of operations my father recently found out he may loose his leg due to a serious infection in his knee. This was caused by a woman who ran a stop sign whilst he was on his way home on his motorcycle. The woman on the other hand has only lost her licence for six months and was slapped with a fine equal to a parking ticket. He's had about eight operations on his wrist, pelvis and knee and no matter how many times you think it can't get any worse, it does. To make things that little bit more depressing, I have a very sick grandfather in New Zealand but as I'm starting a new job, there's little possibility I'll get to see him before he passes away.
