We saw the plastic surgeon Wednesday afternoon and learned the skin graft had failed. It was removed and we were told to give him a daily bath with a good soap and water washing of the wound and then apply some silverene cream and wrap it. It is healing and she wants to see if it continues to heal on its own. If not, we may have to go back to the wound vac. She feels pretty confident that it will heal on its own.
Thursday I got the house cleaned. I am not really happy with the service I am using. Need to find time to look around for someone else. I have considered doing it myself but just not sure I can.
The neighborhood had a coffee Friday that I was able to attend. Marsha was here. Then I went to the grocery store.
Yesterday a neighbor sat with Cowboy and I went to the dulcimer rehearsal. Don't get to go much right now and it was really fun to see everyone. We are starting to work on a January concert date. The neighbor who sat is a very lovely lady whose own husband had Lewy Body Dementia. He is deceased. So nice of her.
I had a dinner party Saturday night with the help of the attendees. A friend next door made the entree' and everyone brought something. I made some green beans and of course got the table set up, bought some wine and made appetizers. It was a great evening. These are neighbors who are always ready to do something for each other and look after each other. I so treasure them.
I have some tidying up to do today but hope to spend most of the day reading the paper and maybe getting in a nap. May be warm enough this afternoon for a walk.
Cowboy is doing pretty well. He has been cooperative about his baths and getting wrapped up and seems to reached a point where he doesn't constantly want to put on his jeans. He ate pretty good last night. I am seeing signs of crankiness now and then but I really don't blame him. It must be hard in so many ways. I just wonder what goes on in his head.
