Pamela Kade* was grabbing lunch at a Golden Corral restaurant in March 2016, when she slipped on a puddle of water an employee had poured on the floor to clean something up, before leaving it unattended to fetch supplies. She fell to the floor, tearing the lateral meniscus in her left knee. Mrs. Kade had such excruciating pain that she needed three separate surgeries: an arthroscopy, a total knee replacement, and a manipulation under anesthesia.
