Sorely lacking the funny.

Plastic surgeon sent me to an infectious disease specialist today. There is a red spot on frankenlefty. They’re putting me back on Bactrim (started Levaquin yesterday) but I can tell they’re trying to prepare me. I think there’s a good chance frankenlefty’s going to fail.

I can’t find anything funny to say about that.

But give me a couple days.

I am so, so sorry that you have had such a rough go of it. I wish I could bring you a cup of tea and some yarn. xo

Keep the faith! I also had an infection in my frankenlefty and on the fourth antibiotic it finally cleared up. I’ll be thinking of you!

Oh, man. I’m so sorry to hear that. Hugs (gentle ones) to you. I hope the new antibiotics work.

Man that just sucks. I really want to thank you for sharing the story though. I haven’t gone for reconstruction yet and for every person who tells me how easy they have it I read about someone like you who reminds me that it’s not like getting your hair done.
