Some time ago, I messed up my left knee big time in a skiing accident. This is a revival of an older post, one that I wish brings hope to anyone who’s feeling frustrated — about anything. My recovery from that mishap was horrendous, as was dealing with insurance. It wasn’t till six months later that I had healed enough to schedule the surgery I was informed that I needed. A few weeks before the big day, however, I slipped and broke more parts of the same knee. That second fall meant postponing surgery.
A blessing! As I waited anew for the surgery, I met a wonderful orthopedist who suggested that I might not need cutting after all! Lo and behold, within a year and a half later, my knee was — and remains almost perfect! I can dance!
Here are a couple of short clips of my husband and me at the very start of our learning new Tango Elegante steps taught to us by the best Argentine Tango teachers ever! Btw, if you’d like to learn how to edit video, I found this youtube video on how to use iMovie very helpful.

I just love your tango videos! It is the most beautiful of all the ballroom dances, I think.

You two look very elegant dancing together!
So, actually, your second fall prevented surgery because you met that orthopedist in the meantime. Sometimes things are just meant to happen in a certain way, and we only understand it later. It is so great that you can dance after those accidents!

It is really a miracle that your second fall helped you, and glad that you have fully recovered from the injury and could dance with no difficulty.
Have a wonderful Weekend!
