Gloom and Sprinkles
It is a day of gloom and sprinkles. The donuts that Megan and Nicholas used to like had more sprinkles on them than what our windshield had on it.
Today was a visit at Dennis’ radiologist. Dr Gio did the three angioplasty surgeries on Dennis’ left leg getting Dennis ready for the amputations of his left foot’s toes. Can you believe it? We were told that he would check in with us next year. He had photos of Dennis’ foot that were taken Monday of this week. He is very pleased at how Dennis’ last surgery, January 11th, 2023, is healing. He brought the photos up on the computer screen and Dennis got to see it in full color and up close.
Monday was the 24th and today is the 27th. Three doctors in three days have given us positive affirmations on the rate of healing. I told Dr. Gio I had read the clinical notes of that January surgery. Those notes did not give much hope for healing with the notation that an amputation below the knee would give better healing odds. I never shared that with Dennis. Each day the dressings were changed here in our living room with care and a pat given for being a good patient. Yes! Dennis is beating the odds.
With that bit of news, I am looking forward for all to continue as it has been going.
I am looking forward to snapping on those lights in the studio and checking out what next will make threads and fuzz. First things first as the laundry basket could use a bit of relief. Who doesn’t enjoy pulling on clean fresh clothes. Friday seems to have come quickly this week. It has been a good week. See you all tomorrow.
