Wednesday Afternoon Paula Update

I just got off the phone with Paula and she is in a LOT of pain today. Apparently todays treatment went quite painful. There are so many variables with these treatments and bandaging that its incredible, but one big thing is WHO does them, as well as HOW they do them. If the caregiver is off their game at all it can make a big difference. That is the part of the program I do not miss at all, having to hurt her in cleaning and dressing the wound. I can only imagine what its like with all the extra things they are doing each day. Even when the wound dressing goes well there is a painful burning and ache after effect that can last for hours sometimes.

All in all, the wound is getting better, but she won't be seen by the specialist until Friday, so I won't have much update before then. I get to see her tonight, and update again if any news was left out here....
