Dear Tante

My right (and probably my left) have degenerated to the point they feel as they will NOT hold my 124 lbs.  I was advised that if I strenghtened my calf muscles through regular physical therapy (weight, minimal, with repetition) it would take the load off my knees.  It might or might not help, but i figure anything that might work, is worth it.  Please don't hesitate to talk, visit, write, or whatever.
