The incision

They removed the bandage tonight.  Here is a pic of the incision.  THAT IS ONE BIG INCISION!!!  The thing on her left hip area (near the bed) that looks like another incision is not...it is just some blood from where they pulled out the drain and it splattered a bit.  Ellie's was a T3 spinal fusion (so from the T3 vertebrae down).


This is a pic of the bruise on her left foot where the blood infiltrated (IV went bad) the other day.

That is a huge incision. A little hard to look at. It will look better as it heals though. Wow, Ellie. You are one tough cookie!
