she's "back"




I just had to show how awesome this scar is...but also how good a job the plastic surgeon did to reshape mom's back!
The second photo is of Olive and Kate looking at the wound.

Mom is home, at rest, peaceful, happy, managing pain. It's the best we could hope for. Now we just need to keep her wound dry and clean and keep her on top of the pain, entertained, fed, etc.

I think she'll be posting next!

Wonderful news! So glad to hear that no nursing home transition was necessary. I will call next week to see when I can stop by for a visit.

Love,
Ursula

Yea!! Thanks for the "after" picture. I wanted to ask for one (but would not) since I saw "before." How wonderful to see that the problem area is GONE!

Love, love, Gloria

Woo-hoo! What terrific news! And what an incredible family. It's so wonderful that the folks from Down Under are here. I *know* that will speed Diane's recovery.

Best to you all!
