Get your priorities straight. Here's what you were told

" If I do not bend my knee for FOUR weeks, I am told that
it will heal. IF I bend my knee, the pieces of the patella (kneecap)
will move and I'll need surgery with screws and pins."

You're going to struggle into a crowded stadium; sit in a wheelchair
for hours, risk tripping, stumbling, getting knocked?

Health and fitness are infinitely more important, and precious, than
attending a game to please your husband.
