Thread: New update on son

I have not kept you up on every turn that has gone on since his amputation, but here is where we are after another taking of two more inches off about 6 weeks after the original surgery.

Hi everyone,

Just heard from Randy a few minutes ago and he had the MRI last night and it confirmed the MRSA and the choice he has made instead of 10 days of antibiotics and shaving the bone back (another surgery), he is going to use the Hyperbaric Chamber and each day a home health nurse will go to his house and give him IV antibiotics. This will be everyday for 8 weeks. Like he said they took an additional 2" off last time and it didn't help so unless it's was going to kill him he wanted this method of dealing with the MRSA.

The MRSA has been his trouble the entire time since the amputation and hopefully this will get rid of it and then he will heal properly.

Thank you all for your prayers and support,
Skip

Skip we will keep Randy in out thoughts and prayers.
