So my mom's doin fine, other than being in some amount of pain, but that's always ta be expected.
She'll get to come home by the beginning of next week, and in order to ward off the chance of another infection, her abdominal opening has been left as is, besides having the deepest layer of muscle tissue bound together.
So the layers of fat and such have to be kept open and packed with a type of moist surgical gauze to keep out germs, and while healing, the flesh'll push it out gradually.
I get to dress the wound and take care of it, so that's awesome. Now my mom is a bigger lady, so there's tons of exposed shit that I get to play with and stuff, and I figure it best to improve my guts if I ever plan on joining the army.
Fun, fun.

carcinogen_crush - April 27, 2007 (11:17 PM) Yeah, that's exactly right. Been taking care of it for a while now, and it's pretty awesome. The open incision was around 3 inches deep, but it's healed considerably from the time when she first got home. I have to moisten gauze with salt water, and then pack it in there. It's so awesome to get your fingers in. Never thought I'd enjoy playing around with that sort of stuff as much as I do. |
