So last nights post should be tonights post. It's happening tomorrow. I finally was able to speak with the surgeon myself this evening.
Tomorrow will be surgery #1. They will be starting at the ankle. For those of you who know him, you may have realized his leg is really swollen. So this first surgery will not be fully closed up. They will leave it open to allow the leg to drain. This is going to hopefully assist in bringing the swelling down. Then Friday or Monday they will be removing the leg from right below the knee.
Wow. This is actually happening. We knew it was probably going to happen. Even sure it would happen. But I can't believe it's here. We are both very nervous. I am sure he is more nervous than I am. I can't even imagine what he is feeling right now.
Today was a rough day. There is always the change dialysis will be a permanent thing. That he will be on it from here on out. But we are praying it's temporary.
Please think of us tomorrow. I will update once I find out how things go tomorrow.
