Poor Cousin Barry

As if it was not bad enough that my leg had to go, poor cousin Barry has now lost his battle with Charcot and lost his as well this past week!  You might remember that Barry was about 8 months ahead of me in the Charcot battle. We both won, but I lost to a staph infection - and now, so has he.

Sigh, so bummed.

Filling my days with physical therapy, occupational therapy and cognitive testing.  Intersperse this with IV antibiotics six times a day and I am wearing down rapidly!  So upgrading my diet by not eating the food here or at least as little as possible.  But little I can do to get any more rest than I am.  For this week, just a ton of exercising

Just working towards the second cast removal on this upcoming Friday!  So, everything is up in the air as far as even next week is concerned.

I really need to go home .....
