Re: knee surgery ACL

[Amanda Perez <amandaperez@ureach.com>]

  I don't have any personal experience with this, but a good 
friend tore her ACL skiing and did a fair amount of research.  
Apparently you can live without an ACL (many football players 
have totally destroyed theirs) if you strengthen the 
surrounding muscles, which physical therapy should help. 
Your knee won't be quite as stable as before but you should be 
able to live with it, especially if you don't do alot of 
torquing-type activities (like skiing).
