Narrative

EE was getting down from the belt take-up after setting a jack pipe and stepped down wrong and twisted / hyper-extended EE's left knee. EE continued to work and while off during Christmas break, EE had knee surgery. After working over 6 months, the leg has not improved, so EE is now off to have total replacement, as of July 11, 2019.
