Community nurse came to pack & dress the wound this morning. It is the first time I'd actually seen it with the dressing off. It looks horrific! They stuck it with glue at the hospital, instead of suttures, and the glue has come adrift, leaving two gaping holes. She now tells me she suspects an infection has got in, so he's back on antibiotics. He also has a touch of cellulitis on his left side, next to the wound. She thinks it will be a long job. I am feeding Roger a high protein diet and hoping for speedy healing. there's nothing more I can do for him. On the credit side. the plumbing is going awfully well. No need for laxatives, but perhaps that's too much information!
