The bandages have all been removed from the incision area, and the doctors and nurses all think it looks terrific and is healing wonderfully. Is suppose beauty is in the eye of the beholder on this one, but it's a relief to know everything appears to be healing well.
The surgeon visited us this morning and indicated we would shoot for departure on Sunday. However, he filled out all the paperwork so if Mandy feels well enough to go home today, she just needs to say the word and away we go. We'll see how the walking and eating progress today, but we'll plan on coming home Sunday unless her status changes in a more significant way today.
Amanda's incision healing well. The white band is for her eye patch, which keeps her eye moist because she doesn't have total control over her eyelid yet and doesn't have feeling in her right eye |
Pete, thanks for all the updates! This all sounds so scary, but know you have so many people pulling for you, Amanda! We are following your journey & sending you guys lots of love and positive, healing vibes ;) Pete, I'm sure you have a lot of people bringing in meals & helping with kids, but let us know if there's anything else you need or if the meals die down! We'd love to visit when she's feeling up to it!
