#73. DEBRIDEMENT

After arriving in Louisiana Monday evening, I was as admitted The Surgical Breast Center, we were instructed to go straight to the hospital upon arriving in Louisiana. I was kept NPO, just in case I would have surgery Tuesday morning March 28th, which happened to be the same day in 2016 that I had my mastectomy! I did have surgery, the left gluteal incision was opening, they did a debridement and sutured it closed again. The left breast had a debridement done as well. The incision was closed up and a wound vac was placed on the reconstructed breast.

I am not in pain, the team here is coordinating home healthcare for the wound care and vac seal to be changed 3X a week. If all can be arranged, we will be headed back to Maui possibly Saturday. I also still have two drains on the hips.

I will stop here, once more, I do appreciate the comments, well wishes and continued prayers. the picture above is a puzzle I did, saved as a picture 💕
