(Not that one you pervs !) The hole in my belly from the surigical incision is slowly but surely closing up. Yay ! Now it’s right at 3 3/4 to 4 inches long, 2 inches wide and at it’s deepest point about 2 1/2 deep. And we only have to do the wet to dry (make you cry) dressing twice a day now. However there is some pus in the the dumb thing. It’s been that way for a few weeks. Even though I shower it out everyday (not fun to wash out a hole like that, the spray doesn’t feel wonderful) and it gets peroxide poured in there every day. I will have to smack my doctor and insist on some antibiotics. I can’t figure out why it still hurts bad enough that I still need pain killers (darvost) 2 to 3 times a day. I am also taking 800 mg of motrin 3 times a day. I refuse to sweep, mop or vaccum until this is closed all the way. I won’t take any chances on doing anything that might keep it from healing well. (Well that’s what I tell everybody anyway. heh) But I am back to cooking, loading the dishwasher and doing LIONsob’s hair everyday and folding laundry. I have also lost 20 lbs now.Yay ! But this was a hellofaway to do it. ---
