Foot update

Went to Kings College Hospital yesterday to see the foot quack. He is happy with the progress of healing, and says that there is only a little ulcer left. He scraped away some dead skin and used something that looked very much like a set of wire cutters to trim my toenails. Very scary.

Even scarier was his comment that had I waited another day or so to come in I would have had to be hospitalised. So I cheated that by the skin of my...toes...yet again. He also said that when he scraped out the infection before (the squeamish might want to avoid the next clause) a piece of bone fell out. I'm glad he didn't mention that to me at the time. They want to see me again on April 3rd. I hope that it will be entirely healed.

Now off to the nurse to get today's shot in the bot. Next Tuesday is the last day for that, thank God.
