Mary has been home for almost 4 days now. She is really enjoying not being at the hospital! They (Mary, Kyle, and my mom) still have about 5-6 hours a day of wound care and physical therapy. Kyle is very good at pushing Mary and getting her to work hard! Yesterday she saw a doctor here in Boise. The doctor seemed to think everything looked like it was healing really well. She even mentioned that the spot the other doctor thought might need to be regrafted was looking good. She said she thought Mary probably wouldn't need another surgery. Yay! Keep those prayers coming!! They also gave Mary some new wraps and bandages that she is liking a lot better. Mary continues to be able to do more each day......yesterday she walked up the stairs "like a normal person" as she put it. Her feet are looking a lot less swollen each day, and both the donor sites and the skin grafts continue to heal at amazing rates. Skin is so cool......it is really just incredible stuff!! Mary has loved being able to see and visit with people. Thank you to everyone who was able to come to the Open House. And if you missed it, please feel free to call and come over to say hello. I know Mary would love it. She and Kyle went to dinner and a movie last night....I'm sure it felt great to be out doing "normal" things again. Mary's doctor from the U of U is coming to Boise next week (apparently he does this once a month) so she will get to see him next Tuesday. So we may know a little more then....but so far everything at home is going well.
