3 weeks since Stevie Bug's third degree burns and he is almost good as new! The people at
Temple Children's are awesome, but I hope I never have to go there again.
His skin graft surgery for under his arm was 10 days ago. Now it is almost all pink skin with just a few scabs in the burn area. His thigh, in the donor area, is still pretty tender but that bandage just came off as well. We were SOOO LUCKY.
Now if we could just talk him into taking a bath...he is afraid it will hurt. He tells us "Dr. Hensel is my burn doctor," and we counter with, "He says you should take a bath." So far he's winning, but those feet are getting dirty as the weather warms up and he runs outside barefoot.


He loves the camera!
