I already had meniscus-tear surgery on that same knee in 2010, so I know what I'm getting into.... AND---I'm 'okay' with this surgery. It's out-patient and the recovery time is not too bad... As you know, I've had LOTS of pain with the knee this past month and a half---so I'm ready for ANYTHING to give me some relief. AND---since I'm an active person, I am ready to get out there and do some HIKING again!!!!!
Again, Happy 2015 to you! Check out my new January Quotes on my right sidebar. And---there's a new post on my other blog, Betsy's Photo Blog, if you have time to look at it... Thanks!!!!
Thanks for all of your prayers for me during this time of my knee problem... God Bless ALL of You.
Hugs,

Happy New Year! xoxo
Here's sending good wishes and prayers your way on January 8th.
You'll be good as new real soon!! Happy new year to you, George, and your beautiful family! May there be many hiking days ahead for you!
Bummer on the surgery, but grateful you have the courage to "git er done" so you can move forward with life! I know you and sitting around with a bum knee is most definitely NOT you!
Dear Betsy, hope your surgery goes well. Based on the positive attitude that is so apparent in your blog, I'm sure that it will! Hope you have a wonderful 2015. You're one of those inspiring bloggers I always look forward to reading; don't ever forget the big positive impact you have on your readers!
So grateful that such amazing surgeries are available! I keep wondering what they did in the 'olden days'. Betsy I trust your surgery will go just as it should and your body will respond quickly to healing. God give you daily strength and patience to endure the healing process! You do have George at your beck and call and that's a God send! Be well in 2015!
Hoping this surgery goes smoothly and recovery is even better than the first time. I know you would rather be out hiking the hills looking for waterfalls. Soon my friend.
Please keep us updated on the surgery.
May 2015 be pain free and adventurous.
Getting old is the pits sometimes. Hopefully the surgery will go well, but you might want to consider some sort of knee protection when you hike.
Praying that your surgery goes well and that you have a quick recovery so that you can get back to hiking. Love all the new sidebar quotes. Happy New Year.
Happy 2015 tu you and George.
Betsy, Wishing you and George a Happy & Healthy New Year! I hope that your recovery from your upcoming knee surgery is speedy and complete. Laurie and I are starting out 2015 with bad colds, aches, pains and a bit of fever. Our family visited from Omaha and they brought the "plague" with them... Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
With your optimistic and fun attitude you will heal so fast and be back taking your hikes to falls in no time. Have a Happy New Year and a fast recuperation.
I'm sure 2015 will be our best year yet. I love the quotes on your sidebar (and I love YOU!).
Happy 2015!! wow, that sounds like a different kind of new year. i hope you will get to travel lots once the knee is back into working order. keep us posted. ( :
At least you get to start out the new year with a fix for the knee! That is a gift unto itself!
Happy New Year, Betsy!

Happy new year !
Wishing you both happy new year amd of course a better health for you so you can do the hikinh again.
sorry to hear you have to have surgery but at least you do know what to expect from it. Best wishes for a speedy recovery from that.
Happy New Year to both of you
A most Happy and Joyous New Year to you and George. I will definitely be keeping in you my prayers for your surgery. You are such an inspiration to me, all that you do with exercising and leading a very active lifestyle. I know that as soon as you recover you'll be back out there finding waterfalls and out of the way hikes.
Many Blessings,
Betsy
Happy New Year you two! I have you in my prayers for your surgery- hope all goes well and you heal quickly so you can get back to hiking and taking wonderful pictures to share with us. Blessings!
I sure hope your 2015 is much smoother. Happy New Year!!!
I am so glad the surgery is coming up soon, and then you will be on your way to healing!As you know, I had meniscus surgery. Not long after that, I got two more tears, one in each knee. I have been living with those for many years. But they are not near as painful as your tear, which must be pretty big. Your header is truly stunning and gorgeous!
Prayers coming your way for your surgery. Hopefully you will be pain free and back to hiking by the time the weather gets warmer.
Good Luck and Happy New year to you and George
Blessings

Thinking of you, Betsy, as 2015 holds some little "bends" in the road for you. Hope you are staying warm there! It is cold here! Lots of frost around this morning.
Hugs,
Nellie
I hope that you both have a healthy and happy 2015! I'm so sorry about your knee injury and upcoming surgery but it sounds like you know what to expect. Just alleviating the pain will be a huge plus (been there, done that.) Take care.
Happy New Year, Betsy! I'm so sorry that 2015 is starting with surgery but hope it gives your knee a whole new life for lots of hiking, exploring and discovering more waterfalls! You'll be in my thoughts! Hope you have a speedy recovery!
Love the photograph in your header! Wishes to you and George for good health and much happiness in 2015. So appreciate your friendship!
Best of luck on your knee repair! I know George will be looking out for you.
My sweet friend, I hate that you're having to go through this AGAIN. I do hope it's the last time and I know that your Dr's and George will take good care of you. Praying for a speedy recovery....those waterfalls aren't going to photograph themselves!
Love to you.

Happy New Year to you and George! I hope you feel better very soon, Betsy. I will be saying prayers for you!
It is hard sometimes to understand the ways of life. Back and knee issues are very painful and hard to treat. My brother-in-law is dealing with his knees and feet. Suffers so much. I do hope this last surgery eliminates your pain. You and George are the best and trust the New Year will be even better for you.
Sorry to read you are having another knee surgery Betsy, but anything is better than the daily pain. Sending you and George wishes for a Happy New Year, and speedy healing to put you back on the hiking trails.
~Jo
I hope your surgery goes well, Betsy, and that your knee feels much better soon. Happy New Year to you and George!
sorry about the surgery, but you will probably be glad you followed through. Happy 2015!!! Hope you got my Christmas card. :)
hugs,
Marie
I hope everything goes well, and You will be better soon ! I like Your new header !
Happy New Year to you and George.
I pray all goes well with your surgery and wish you the best of health in 2015.
Got you on my prayer list.... I know you are ready to be out of pain. I also know that you have a lot of spark and a surgery like this is not going to keep you down for very long. There are several positives here. You already have a Great Nurse available to help you through the healing part....It's Winter and you really can't be out hiking right now anyways...You have a warm comfy home and a good chair and you have lots of good friends that are praying for you.. You have it Made!!!!
hugs,
Shug
Betsy I have it written down on my calendar and I will be SURE to pray.
I certainly hope the surgery goes well and gives you a lot of pain relief!
Here is to total and quick healing for you my dear. Some things just happen no matter how careful we are - part of life but YOU have the best attitude ever and so much better to have something happen from being TOO active than from sitting around doing nothing! Hugs!
I've been following your knee troubles on Facebook. I will be saying prayers for you.
I hope the surgery goes well and that you are back on those hiking trials in no time. I may be facing some foot surgery later in the year, so I totally understand. Have a happy and healthy 2015!
I could understand what you are going though and the knee is a troublesome until it becomes right... I was in the same mindset when I went through femur fracture a year back; I wanted to get relief from pain as soon possible in anyway, as it took time to go through cast.
Hope all your pain and struggle get over very soon and this year gonna be a most happy, healthy and content for you both. Cheers Betsy
Sending you lots of warm hugs and well wishes. I'm with you and hoping for a better year healthwise. Lots of prayers going up for ur surgery and healing. Hugs across the miles, xo
Hi Betsy, Happy New Year to you as well. You are in my prayers. Have a extra-nice coming week! Stay warm.
Happy New Year Betsy and George - I'll be thinking and will say a little prayer for you on the 8th, of course I hope it all runs smoothly and you'll be out and about in no time (of course you will, you are a determined and strong lady after all!) the quotes are beautiful, love them! x x x
Happy New Year to you too!! I'm glad you're getting your surgery over with soon so you can get back to your hiking! I'll be praying for you.
