Update on Son
I have not kept you up on every turn that has gone on since his amputation, but here is where we are after another taking of two more inches off about 6 weeks after the original surgery.
Hi everyone,
Just heard from Randy a few minutes ago and he had the MRI last night and it confirmed the MRSA and the choice he has made instead of 10 days of antibiotics and shaving the bone back (another surgery), he is going to use the Hyperbaric Chamber and each day a home health nurse will go to his house and give him IV antibiotics. This will be everyday for 8 weeks. Like he said they took an additional 2" off last time and it didn't help so unless it's was going to kill him he wanted this method of dealing with the MRSA.
The MRSA has been his trouble the entire time since the amputation and hopefully this will get rid of it and then he will heal properly.
Thank you all for your prayers and support,
Skip

I wish him all the luck and will pray for him. I had a very bad case of MRSA about two years ago. I thought I was going to die. With the help of doctors and keeping EVERYTHING wiped down and bacteria free, I got through it. I was washing sheets everyday and not ever touching my nose where it lives. You have to sanitize EVERYTHING, ALL THE TIME. My wife was a big help, hope he has someone to help him through this. That stuff is nasty. How did he get it, in the hospital?

Skip tell Randy that he is in my prayers and I hope that he gets well very soon.
