Well, crap! Went to see my PCP. He didn't like the looks of the blister, did a culture and decided the nurse needs to come back every other day to change the dressing. The blister keeps...

I am soooo bummed out! This blister is now the size of a robin's egg and is showing no sign of popping. I'm so tempted to do it myself. Should I? I would say there is about an ounce of fluid...

Well, I was very excited and happy for a good part of the day. I got my leg and wore it for about 4 hours. When I took it off and removed the gel sleeve there was a lovely blister the size of a...

Well, I got the call that I am to come in to the prosthetists on Wednesday for a fitting and possible delivery! More to come...

I tried on the (what would you call it) . . . prototype? Anyway, I tried it on and of course it felt extremely foreign, but I took two trips through the parallel bars. My back screamed, my good...

Went to the prosthetic clinic today. Took me down from a #4 shrinker to a #2. They said that next Monday they're going to measure and cast. I'm really excited and can't wait to try that first...

Just been taking it easy all weekend. Church was nice. Tomorrow I go to the new prosthetic people 'Corpus Christi Prosthetics'. They had put me on a smaller shrinker from a 6 to a 4 and now the 4...

It just tastes extra good this morning. You fellow coffee lovers know what I mean.So, I'm going back to the prosthetist this morning to see if we can stop these socks from falling down below my...

Darn, gotta' go back to Corpus Christi Prosthetics already. The socks they gave me to put on under the outer stocking roll down in a matter of hours. They won't stay up underneath the outer...

Wow! I slept pretty darned good thanks to a little birdie named Edalji. I woke up at my usual time (about 2 am), went to the restroom and absentmindedly went to start up the coffee pot. But, I...

Well, now I have another dilemma... the new place I'm going to gave me a nice outside sock. It's sorta' like a thigh high stocking with an elastic grip to keep it from sliding down. They also...

Well, I found a much better place to go for my leg. Turns out that the shrinker the original guy had me wearing was all wrong. It rolled to below my knee, so the only part getting shrunk was the...
-
Well, the guy I was going to let make my leg has flaked on me again. He told me he would make my leg Thurs. or Fri. Now, he's saying he can't come until Tues. I asked him is it going to be a...

I'm a nervous wreck. I'm happy, scared, worried and filled with anticipation. I don't have any idea what to expect. I saw a photo of someone's stump and it was thin and conical shaped. As...

Here it is, 2:00 am again. Ugh!So, I thought I would ramble a bit until the hot chocolate and flexeril does their job. That's how I get back to sleep.I wake up in the middle of the night with...
