Another milestone passed!

Jon had a visit from his wound doctor who pronounced Jon's bed sore healed and scar tissue is forming over it. What wonderful news! He (and we) have been looking forward to this news for months. When we first started learning about bed sores we were discouraged when we read that sometimes they can take well over a year to heal and yes, now that I think about it, that is how long it was for Jon. However, the turning point was when Jon started eating solid foods in May. While it never got as big as the scary examples I saw on the internet it had gone deep. Jon gives much of the credit to the care he got at Westerville and vows to be vigilant in following procedures to keep a new one from forming. We're quite relieved and wish him well.
