"slipping patella"

Both of my knees "pop out", as I call it. My nanny had it, my dad has it, I have it, along with my little sister. I have had 2major surgeries on my right knee (7 years and 17)along with 1 orthroscopic, and one major surgery on my left (9 years). Both of knees still go out occassionally, but I am thankful that I can walk 10 feet without the excrutiating pain of knees dislocating. Wish I could write more.
