It has now been ten weeks since my leg surgery. The surgical wound is still not quite healed. Here's a photo I took this morning. (Click here for others.)
On August 20, Dr. Jacobs gave me permission to resume swimming and even dancing. It was the best news I'd heard in a million years.
I still have to use the Normatec device for several hours every day. Each time I use it, even for just half an hour, more stuff oozes out of the surgical wound on my leg. This weirds me out a little, but I take my cues from the doctors I trust, and if they're not worried, then I try not to worry either.
No worries. :-)

Maybe it's good to provoke a little stuff to ooze out every day -- part of the healing. YOur leg is looking good today -- congrats on healing and being able to swim & dance again!
