UPDATE:
This past Saturday, I took my son down to my friend's shop and got in the pool with full gear. It was my first time back in the water since my accident. Even though it was just in the pool, it still felt great to be back in the water. My knee gave me very little trouble and the exercise seems to have improved the range of movement a bit. We were originally scheduled to go for Junior's OW this coming weekend, but my friend has property in South Carolina and he went down there to make sure that it was secure. He canceled the OW class that he had scheduled for this past weekend, so everything has been delayed. I'll take Junior down to the LDS this coming weekend for some more pool work, to keep him ready, so that when the time comes, we can do his open water work.
But, at least I can dive again!

Thanks, Jerry. I used my Tusa Liberator X-10s in the pool. They aren't as heavy and stiff as my Jets and didn't put any strain on my knee. I'll probably just use them for what remains of this season.
