Dear God in Heaven.

My mother, may she rest in peace, used to say that the surest definition of insanity was continuing to do the same thing over and over, expecting different results. But then again she wasn't a doctor so what did she know?

You rejected all three. Soon some brainiac will reccommend a fourth.

Another life destroyed by brilliant new technology.

What about an autograft patella from the other knee?

Rejection is not possible. Its your own.

Find a new doctor ASAP
