Yesterday I took Missy out to do some bank business and we were in search of soft sponges and baby washcloths. It's actually very hard to find soft sponges. Missy did her debriements at the hospital with soft sponges but they said that they don't send those home with patients because they want them to be a little more aggressive with scrubbing the eschar off. They sent home a huge bag of dressing change material with us when she was released on Sunday. I have done two dressing changes so far and all went well. These pics are from after her debriement tonight before I dressed the areas. Missy has almost cut in half the pain meds that she had been taking in the hospital. She is so anxious to get back to her life! We went out today for another Dr's app't that she had, then we went up her work in Scottsdale as well for her to check in. She has given herself a goal! She told work that she would be back on Jan. 19th. Things are going well but we'll see what the Dr's say. She has her first app't at the Burn Clinic tomorrow afternoon.
