A lot of people can't lift their leg this soon. Of course, every time I lifted it, it felt like it was becoming unattached again. The next thing I had to do was get out of bed and start walking. It was just unbelievable pain. After a surgery like that, it's two weeks of hell, four weeks of misery, and six weeks of pain.
Rehabilitation takes a tremendous amount of time.
You're trying to break up scar tissue, strengthen your knee, and work on your overall cardiovascular and your upper-body strength. You're trying not to lose the strength in other parts of your body because of your knee. When you're hurt, you want to be missed. But I don't want to be missed that much. It's mentally draining not to be able to help, particularly with the way my team was playing.
