Week 8

Plastics guy came to the wound change today. He's pleased with her progress. He thinks we'll be scheduling a surgery date for the skin graft after he sees her again in 2 weeks. He said she'll be in the hospital over night after the graft but then she'd be going home with the wound VAC again. For two weeks after the graft, she'll be very limited in what she will be allowed to do so the graft can take. If we heard him correctly, he expects her to be fully recovered from the graft within 4 weeks of surgery.
