Skin Grafts

 

Usually when we go to the Dermatologist, it’s no big deal.  We get a few hits of liquid nitrogen.  Sometimes he digs something out and that’s the end of it.  This time, with the Mohs Surgery and skin grafts, it has turned out to be a really big deal.  We made the first visit in August.  We had the Mohs surgery and the skin grafts in September.  Two weeks later, in October, we got the first set of stitches out from where they took the skin for the skin grafts.  Three weeks after the surgery, today, in the last part of October, we got the last set of stitches out; the ones for the skin grafts themselves.

 

We’re both healing up nicely.  We’re all through with the painful parts.  The bandages have gotten progressively smaller and we won’t need them at all after another week.

 

 

Deck progress.

Today’s they worked on all three stairways for the deck.  Here, we have hand railing on the front steps.
