wrap up week

that is how it's shaping up to be....the puzzle is nearly done....anxious to box it up and use the sewing table to SEW something!



 friday evening did get in a bit of zooming with my like-minded peeps...until the nurse arrived anyway...

all very busy doing pretty things....very inspiring!

and stop here if you think you're a bit squeamish.....i am posting a photo of my arm in its near- healed state....looking very much like the wound vac is a wrap this week as well....


this is 1000% improved from post surgery....imagine it 2" deep and about 2" wide from my palm up to where the change in color is just below the elbow....sutures at top and bottom since he did a carpal tunnel release also...the remainder wide open...down to the muscle looking very much like a piece of chuck roast....though the wound vac is ideal for this, it was supported by a gazillion prayers from so very many... i am choked up with gratitude for each one.   a bit more to go but won't be long at all...

so looking forward to two functioning hands, some PT and getting back to routine not to mention quilting and sewing.  God is so very good isn't he???

  3. Glad to hear you are healing so well. My BIL is in a wheelchair and gets pressure sores that require a wound vac. Very
    uncomfortable however they really help with the healing. Try to keep up your good spirits and good luck finishing your pretty socks.
