Well, the news is mixed.
They removed my dad's toes down to one level, meaning they cut from the little toe across to the big toe joint and it's now all one straight line. They took skin from the bottom of his foot and wrapped it up around the top of the foot because that skin wasn't healing. They are not sure that the skin from the bottom of his foot will be good however, because it is so callused and mushed up from the accident. They had a vascular surgeon come in, but he wasn't sure what he would be able to do.
So... right now it's wait and see time. If the skin starts to heal they do the skin grafting on his foot. If it doesn't, they remove more of the foot. Not good.
I'm hoping and praying that his circulation will be good and that he will heal up quickly and easily.
Thanks again for all the thoughts and prayers. He sure needs them right now.
