For those that care.. Health update

Looks like the healing proxess isnt going as well as the doctors and nurses had hoped. The necrotic (dead) tissue on my leg is coming back in almost the same spot as before. The wound vac is doing its job everywhere it seem but that one spot, so theyre thinking that they may need to admit me to a rehab facility for a week or 2 so that I can get the care that the home care nurses cant give me. Theyve been coming every 2 days to change the dressing, but they feel I need more care as in daily dressing changes. I hate the thought of being admitted again, but the place they wanna send me isnt exactly a hopsital setting so maybe it wont be that bad. lol Pretty nurses, a nice soft bed, meals served to me 3 times a day and maybe even a whirlpool bath a few times a week. Doesnt sound too bad does it? Actually i would rather be peartying and making contacts in Phoenix, but this is the shit ive gotta go thru to get to that point I guess. lol Maybe if all this works out well, ill be able to make the show in Amsterdam this fall. Thats been my goal since the show there last year. Anyway, with this new laptop, hopefully the rehab place will have a wifi hotspot I can tap into to work while im there, or if not ill at least have dialup lol Hate it but whats a guy to do in my situation? Anyway, thanks for all the donations, thoughts and well wishes. Other than a few minor setbacks im on my way to recovery. Im even off the walker for the most part. That in itself is a major accomplishment considering what I was like when I first got outta the hospital
