Final Round of Surgery: Done!

I'm very excited to announce my mom's final round of surgery was completed last week. Her right knee had been giving her problems and was not healing; her doctor had to go down to the bone and patch things up, so to speak. Last week, she had a final skin graft to cover up the exposed tissue on her right knee and it has been healing... this is the last round of surgery that we are anticipating.

Next on the agenda: once the new skin is completely healed, her amputation sites will be "shrunken down" to enable fitting of prosthesis! I'll update as I find out any new information on this process.

Since my mother's release from the hospital, she has been able to attend a couple of big events, such as last month's benefit show (which was a success!) and my cousin's recent wedding (see photo). She's been adjusting to home life and has home health care on a regular basis, including physical therapy.

I just wanted to take a moment and thank everyone, from family to friends to those who were touched by her story without having met her- thank you for your support throughout this difficult journey. It's far from over, but my mom has made so much progress! She is truly a brave, strong soul, and an inspiration.
