Desquamation

I don’t think in my upwards of 40 surgeries I’ve seen my scars or sutures peel like this.

I have put some of my Miracle Oil on it twice a day in hopes it lessens their appearance.

The pain is definitely improving from the beginning.

I have to wear a boot when I am up and around (which to be honest ain’t much).

My boots have airbags šŸ¤£.

The turn dial (A) switches the control of each airbag on either side of the boot.

The pump (B) inflates each airbag.

I find that a very good improvement from the last time I had to wear these boots.

Which of course was 1999 time frame when I crushed the bones in my ankle and lower right leg.

My husband has already gone back to work so I have had to rely on Dusty alot lol.

My husband gets home and figures out what to cook.

Thankfully we found a new airfryer at Sam’s Club the last appointment I had at the surgeon’s office.

It was $40 off! Win, win!

I spend alot of time in my bedroom, which I have never really done before (except for surgery recoveries).

I normally get up when my husband did and did the normal letting dogs out, coffee, dog meds and my meds.

Thankfully, he has been doing all that recently.

Took him a bit to figure out the washer and dryer settings since I have always done that.

Our eldest dog, Max, is 17 years old and can’t really hold his pee so we have a collection of dog pampers that need washing on a daily.

But with him having dementia I wouldn’t expect anything different. He has definitely lived a longer than most life for a dog. He has lived double the life of my Chewy (miss him like crazy).

I have used the disposable ones but found they didn’t stay on him very well.

The one thing that sucks is the smell of urine seemed to linger til I found an enzyme I add to the washer that helps remove the scent.

Overall, everything is improving.

I go back in a couple weeks for another xray and I think he will have me start physical therapy at that point.

I know I am not ready for it but gotta do what I gotta do.

Pain meds will definitely be my friend šŸ˜‰
