On Tuesday last week we went back to the wound clinic to meet with the surgeon. She was not quite as over the moon excited as she was the first follow-up post surgery. She had hoped that the donor site would have "taken" to the oasis (a skin graft for a skin graft) and unfortunately for whatever reason Husband's body pretty much rejected it. He had hoped Tuesday would be his LAST visit but she wanted to see him again on Thursday.
Also, unfortunately I didn't snag any pictures on Thursday because we had the little people with us and I was in and out of the room. You would have been able to tell a difference. On Tuesday they put pads on his wounds with "the good stuff"... silver... and on Thursday there was DRAMATIC improvement. He is still wrapped BUT it is dressing changes he can do himself and PRAISE THE LORD OH MY SOUL the man can TAKE A SHOWER!!!!! :) He was thrilled with that news! :) Only every other day of course but he'll take it at this point. He goes back on Monday and maybe THEN he will be released from the wound clinic... 10ish weeks later....
