for those of you with weak stomachs you might want to skip past the gory photos, but for those who wanna see what the actual leg looks like after one week here you go.

So the past few weeks have been some of the most miserable of my life. I say that not because of my surgery, or the stomach pains, or the trip to the emergency room, or the inability to eat, or the annoying rash. No, it is because of Sarah McLachlan. I’ve heard “In the Arms of an Angel” and seen dying animals enough to make a Somalian child think, hey my life isn’t so bad, but really who is worse off the kid or the unfortunate dog? But I digress. Over the past couple of weeks I’ve learned of more ways to take nausea medicine than anyone should be aware of (4 – 3 of which were not oral), I know what the contents of my stomach without food looks like, and that 8 hour trips to the emergency room are my least favorite and don’t accept a green lizard. All that said I am doing better. I’m now eating solid food, I have regular bowel movements, and I can bathe all by myself, take the nephew Sawyer. One day soon I hope to tackle stairs.
