At class yesterday, the presenter told us the very most important exercise to get ready for surgery is the exercise I absolutely hate. Figures! Sit in a chair, prop leg up on a different chair with a rolled-up-towel under the ankle, put an ice pack on the knee, and put a 5-10 pound weight on top of the ice pack. It is very, very painful! We were told a bag of frozen peas works well as an ice pack. I have no peas in the freezer. I guess a bag of frozen corn will have to do.
