Check up

Today we had a check up for Jack's foot. They unwrapped his foot and it was quite interesting. To some it may have been too much to look at but I am intriqued by medical stuff so I was actually looking forward to seeing what a skin graft looks like. His foot looked pretty raw....worse than it did before but the doctor said that is exactly how it should look and she was very pleased with the way it's healing. So now my routine is that I have to give him a bath every night, clean his foot, put some meds on it along with dressing and then put vitamin E on his head which they call his "donor sight". In the meantime they are ordering him a compression sock to help with swelling and increase the healing process. Our next appointment is in 2 weeks and at that time he will most likely be done with wrapping it altogether......yay!!! For those of you that are curious at to what it looks like, I will be taking some pics tonight after his bath and posting them maybe later this evening or first thing tomorrow.

By the way, a huge thank you to Jack's doctor, Dr. Dunkelman. She was so wonderful and did such a great job caring for our little munchkin!
