Will I be ready to go to Spain?


I recently tore my ACL and I am having surgery on March 19th. I am scheduled to go on a 10 day trip to Spain on June 9th, but my parents are hesitant to pay for the trip because they are unsure if I will be able to handle the walking. I will have had the surgery almost 3 months prior to my trip. Is this substantial time for my knee to gain strength for the trip?

You should be fine. Be sure to follow through by doing the exercises that the doctor recommends as often as he says to. You can call your surgeons office in the meantime and ask them if this is a reasonable expectation. I think it will be.

Yup! Crutches will probably only be used for tops a month, and if you work hard enough sometimes the minimum is two weeks. If you're athletic it will heel faster, just try to stay off of it as much as possible and do what the therapist tells you in order to regain you're strength quickly. Blessings!
