Prayers needed.
Update on wife: Wound vacuum did not close the wound (after 14 weeks of it), just found out why. We had it removed and the original surgeon suggested going to a wound clinic. We did and it is run by a friend of ours (a semi-retired surgeon), he told us it was soft tissue radiation damage to the breast and hyperbaric oxygen therapy would repair the damaged tissue. Got lined up for 5 days a week 2.5 hours a day for 6 weeks, the first day while they were increasing the pressure to 2.5 atmospheres, my wife's' ears started bleeding. Never got past 1.5 atmosphere . The next day, she had tubes put in her ears and the next day they completed 2.5 hrs at 2.5 atmospheres. Friday after 3 treatments, the surgeon running the clinic examines the breast again and tells us the wound would never close. She need 7 more full days of oxygen therapy then another surgery.
I am thinking and saying to myself, "Is this never going to end?" She is taking it better than I am, I am stressed out. This has been going on for a year and a half now and I am just down. Not asking for sympathy, but prayers. I know the Lord has a plan, but I sure would like to know it.
As for my toe, it oozed blood for 3 weeks before completely stopping. I am still having to wrap it daily in gauze after a good cleaning. The nail has not come off, YET, but do expect it to. Thank the Lord it does not hurt or throb anymore. I am in otherwise great health, just mentally tired.
What I need right now is to win another lottery, just got a confirmation about a Nigerian one that just needs my bank account information so they can transfer 8 million to it. I will share with all of you just as soon as it comes in.
Thanks for the prayers guys and thanks to Tracy for giving me a place to vent, one where my wife does not go.
