You need to talk to a different lawyer. Forgetting to cement the knee is different than opting between two different courses of treatment. Cementing the knee is a necessary step in any procedure. Your new surgeon can verify that. The expense and pain and suffering resulting from the second surgery was completely unnecessary but for the first surgeon’s negligence. His insurance carrier will settle long before you need to sue them. Just don’t wait until the last minute. Oh, you probably should also file a complaint with the medical licensing board people. In any event, it’s your business. Hope her second procedure goes well.

We swapped bikes for a short bit on Monday. Before we took off he asked if I was prepared to spend $20k on a bike. I wasn't, but that ended up being irrelevant, because I spent the next 3 days searching for one. He and I zoomed to Nielsen Motorsports in Lake Villa, Illinois Friday night. We spooned all night, had Starbucks for breakfast and zoomed to the dealership Saturday when they opened. It was ready to roll, except for the system update Jim was prepared to install for me, but they jumped on it with the quickness. I got my tutorial from the salesman and some more pertinent pointers from Jim. Rode it 445 miles home yesterday and put another couple hundred on it today. It just keeps getting better. If you are in the market for a sport touring mount, then go look at one of these. Ride one before you write it off. This bike is incredibly nimble and can be pushed hard all day with little fatigue. It takes everything I can throw at it and just eats miles at speed with ease. The brakes are awesome. Six-piston front calipers and 320mm dual discs stop this thing in its tracks. The new front end is the shining star of the bike, but the flat-6 and delicious exhaust note are nice touch. Also, Honda is offering .9%/60 month financing on leftover 2018 models for the rest of this month. That made the decision a little easier for me.

Really? Wow, I would have thought it was. I will pray for a speedy recovery for her.

Don't know Kovac but I'll bet he gets the cement in this time. My wife has had both knees done by an Orthopedic One doc (McShane) at Riverside. Hope your wife's recovery goes as well as mine's did.

Lawsuit on the first surgeon? That sorta like not tightening lug nuts on a wheel....

Yesterday during the afternoon rain I finally got around to swapping my more than worn out tires for the new ones I bought a few weeks ago. I took the opportunity to give the wheels a good cleaning and added the 90deg valve stems. I had a great time working on the bike yesterday because it's the 1st time in a long while that I had plenty of time to get finished and I didn't feel rushed to get done. Kind of a "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" day.
