Sutures Be Gone!!!

This morning Dana and I headed into the Huntersville office of Carolina Neurosurgeon and Spine associates to have her sutures removed.

The procedure was a success and outside of a few stray hairs getting sacrificed all the sutures are now gone.  The wound has healed nicely and every nurse/Dr we see always comments on how small and nice it looks (compared to others they've seen).

Our nurse told us that once we were done she was going to email Dr Deshmukh as she said he has been wanting to get an update on Mrs Degan.  Even on his vacation Dana is still a priority which is a great feeling to have when your the patient.

Our next follow up won't be until April 11th and that will be 5 weeks from our 2nd surgery.  During that check up we will hope to get the thumbs up on Dana being able to do normal/everyday chores/activities that she has always been able to do (especially the Lake Norman sale of Green Jeans...curious, investigate here: http://www.greenjeanssale.com/home/ ).  

So, here are some awesome pic's of Dana.  As you can see, she looks absolutely stunning.  Hard to believe that just 2 weeks ago she just got done with 2 brain surgeries...crazy.






















Lastly, I wanted you all to know that our door is open to visitors all day long.  Now that she is feeling better and doesn't require as much sleep as before we can substitute that sleep with great company and gossip.  If you can swing by for a visit, you'll be more than welcome to hang out and catch up with us --- just drop me a line or email me and we will hopefully see you soon.
