Thursday
Today was a trip to Mankato Clinic for the reveal. Dennis’ foot was unwrapped after two weeks since the toe was removed. Surgery was on October 22nd. The foot was cleaned and then the stitches were removed. The surgical site looks wonderful. The foot was rewrapped and in five days that wrapping comes off and Dennis and his foot can step into a shower. Only five more days of splishing and splashing in the bathroom. Not to worry. The mopping up is a small price to pay for a squeaky clean ole cowboy. Dennis has been a great patient.
Traveling to Mankato we got a phone call that a lifelong friend of Dennis’, here in St. James, had passed away. A quiet drive ensued. I am sure many memories flooded through.
A short posting today. Many thanks running through my mind that we have arrived home safe and sound and that we are still “us.”
