Progress

Oops, I received pictures on Friday of last week and it completely slipped my mind to upload them.  My apologies for the tardiness.  I've been a little absent-minded lately.  WARNING: The first image below is of Jack's wounds. Though clean and improved, they may still be a little graphically disturbing to anyone with a weak stomach.  Just a warning! The second photo is not so graphic and shows the setup he currently has on his two worst wounds.  If you don't want to see the graphic image, scroll past it to view the second.




As you can see above, the wound vac is doing its job and creating new tissue around the wound.  This will be useful when the surgeons begin the skin graft process.


Above is an image of the new wound vac Jack had put on/in last Friday.  It includes a bridge which links the two wounds together.  They both drain into one machine.

Jack and Carol Ann are in Portland today seeing a surgeon to discuss skin grafts.  More updates soon, we hope.
