Great Surgery Day

This will be a short blog just to let you know that David's surgery went very well today. They checked all the wounds on his legs and everything is healing extremely well. They also check the forearm where the skin flap was taken from and everything looks great there too. The surgeons anticipate skin grafts next Wednesday on all areas. That's Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The hand team also made some changes by taking half of the x-fix off of the area that was stabilizing his wrist. Now he'll be able to gain some flexibility to his wrist.

All of this is GREAT!!!

David is really working hard to get his appetite back. We're hoping he'll have a chance to take a ride around the area in a wheelchair in the next few days. He is really looking forward to seeing some of the other soldiers in the area.

We are all very pleased with the events of the day.

Love to all,

Gordon
