Here are a few updates:
1. My jaw problem turns out to be my Masseter muscle, not my jaw. The Dr. gave me muscle relaxers and they have really done the trick, its a little sore but otherwise pain free now!
2. Dave got a night pass last night and stayed over at the Mologne House with me. We actually felt normal for a night.
3. His knee is really bothering him, it swells up with fluid and is very painful. The 2 pins below it leak and are very red. They started him on antibiotics again.
4. He may be released on Monday or Tuesday as long as his knee is OK.
5. Yesterday was his first shower in 3 months.
I am heading over there shortly to pick up orders, make an appointment, and stay the night with Dave.

Take me out to the Ball Game (and out of the Hospital)
After a disappointing start....the cab blowing us off and just not picking us up....we had an amazing time! We ate a wonderful meal before the game, the Presidents Club is definitely the way to go! Then had a great time watching the ball game, Dave's expressions say it all:

AHHHH!
That's a good Ahhh, as in a sigh of relief. Our good friend Marilyn and I had a nice chat this morning and she sent me this verse:
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7
Today has ended up being a really good day! I worked out my new jaw appointment with the oral surgery clinic, Dave had an AMAZING day at PT, AND my mom really came thru with the car situation. A guy my Dad plays golf with has a lot that mainly sells over the internet, so my mom dropped off the car there today and things are looking great to get it sold soon. This is a HUGE weight off my shoulders, just knowing things are in the works.
And the Subway lady got it right today :)

Things I need in my life today......
Instead of going to the hospital after ATTEMPTING to get things worked out (bills, the car, random BS), I have been slacking at the computer, without further ado, I present things I need in my life today to prevent any further meltdowns:
and last but not least, this guy:
Yesterday David thought I was going to rip my shirt off and transform into the Hulk when I discovered the Subway lady put mustard on my sub instead of mayo. Its the little things people......

New Pictures
Here are some new pictures of Dave's legs and wrist. Today was a nice relaxing day.....laundry-mine at the MH, then Dave's at the hospital, pin care, and some dinner. I am looking forward to a positive and productive week!!!
Everything is healing well, you can barely even see the scar on his wrist! His pin sites are doing better, but that is due to the expert nursing care he is receiving :)
The skin graft is doing well, I took these pictures in the middle of a dressing change. We need a few more layers of skin to be built up, and then it won't look quite so much like a football and more like regular smooth skin.
Thank you for all the positive comments, I am hanging in there.....looking forward to David's birthday on the 14th!
