my flap surgery
Ill pray
for U
Ive had 2 flaps done neither healed in a mnth seems like 3 6 mnths
was on bed rest
But things have changed a lot since then. But Im thinking
U should probably realistically look atleast at 3mnths healing time

OK, so I
finally decided to go for the flap and it is on Wed. I'm really
nervous. The sore is tiny but deep so he is cutting my leg to move the
muscle to the sore which is almost to my butt.
So I have
questions. I didn't realize how much he's going to cut me. He
said he is going to cut a v then a straight line towards my knee which is a
long cut. I dont have feeling but I do feel the pain from this sore
and I have a bad reaction from morphine through IV so I'm scared of the pain
and healing time. The doc says about a month. Have any of you
gone through anything similar to this? Also the sore is on my left
side and in the past my bowel program only worked on that side. I'm
concerned about that as well with all of those staples in my leg.
Any advice or information I might be missing out on I
would love it. My bday is July 3 and I would love to be healed by
then. I am staying in the hospital one to two weeks then coming home.
My neighbor who helps me with the waiver is going to make sure I have
meals. She only works a minimal amount of time with me but between her
and her mom, they are going to make sure I'm taken care of. THANK GOD
I DONT HAVE TO GO TO A REHAB OR NURSING FACILITY. Whenever I go for
testing at the hospital the staff is really nice so I hope the nurses are as
well.
Oh and if you pray I would appreciate
them,
Stacy
