| Cam had her knee operated on last Tuesday. The ligaments holding her knee cap in place were too loose, and needed to be replaced with donor ligaments. Click here for more info |

| The IV was no fun, and neither was the waiting. I think they got to the hospital at 11am, and she didn't go back to surgery until about 3-3:30. |

| She will be on crutches for 6 weeks, and a knee brace for 4 months. She starts physical therapy on Friday. |
