CONTAINS IMAGES OF A CUT ON A FOOT AND HAS A LOT OF RAW LOOKING SKIN. DO NOT CONTINUE IF YOU GET EASILY GROSSED OUT.
DON'T BLAME ME
HAVE A GREAT DAY.
Well as you might remember we made a trip to California back in June. We left on a Saturday, and by the following Monday Kaylee injured herself. Luckily I wasn't around to see all of this play out, but
I've had to deal with a lot of the aftermath since then. So don't look on, if you get squimish looking at cuts and raw looking skin... Just scroll all the way down and see what it looks like now. (Just a scar and all healed)
These pictures were all taken almost two weeks after the accident happened. 
Soaking her feet in a sink so we could loosen the suture strips that were placed there by a nurse that looked at her while we were there, thus saving us a $750.00 copay to the ER... (Don't get me wrong, we would have taken her in if this were a more life or death injury, and as it turned out it wasn't -- thank goodness)
But by this time after being on for a week and a half they were getting loose and starting to fall off. And I knew I could let her just go around with them half falling off, because the site was oozing stuff, which made me think it could have been infected.
So we soaked, and used peroxide to work off the suture strips.
Seriously GROSS!!!
I was nearly wanting to FREAK out when I saw this because it still looked BAD and the accident had happened almost two weeks prior. NOT A GOOD SIGN AT ALL.
Ta DA!! We got them all off, and proceeded to use peroxide to clean out the wound as best we could and then put some Neosporin type stuff with a pain reliever in it on and used some bandages to cover it again, to wait through the weekend and take her back in to the doctor on Monday.
As it turned out, the doctor saw her on Monday and felt like there must be an infection deep inside the cut that was preventing it from healing, so they soaked her foot in a soap solution for about 20 minutes and then cleaned her up, gave her a prescription for antiobiotics... and asked us to go back in 1 week to look at it.
I didn't get pictures of it then, but it was amazing how quickly it changed once we got her on the antibiotics. The skin started coming together and sealing off.. and it was just amazing!! What a miracle.
And just earlier today about 5 1/2 weeks later since those
other pictures were taken here's what she looks like.
I do have to say it looks a lot better now.
