Nasty eh? This pic is after the operation when I returned home...
Let me bring you beautiful people up to speed...
A week and a half ago, I was bitten by a brown recluse spider (or so say most of the doctors and nurses). The bite turned into this huge ugly volcano looking wound that began to eat the flesh on my arm. It also got infected with a Staph infection...
When I went to the doctor's to check it out, they immediately hospitalized me for a few days and operated on my arm. They cut out a nice chunk of it and kept me isolated in hospital for 2 days.
I have been home (everyday...all day...ugh) since then. 9 days now. I have a nurse that comes by everyday and connect me to my iv machine, where I get my antibiotics and to change the bandages on the wound.
It is healing nicely though and I am returning to work next Monday.
