hello everyone,
thank you all for your prayers, they truly did work. i aparently had something that the doctors have never seen or heard of. (shit like this usually happens to me). so i had MRSA, wich is a bacteria that grows on or around flesh, i think. well my case was that i had and absest grow inside of my quad. i suppose this is very rare. so i had three surgeries in four days and spent a week in the hospital. the size of the absest was three quarters the size of a pop can. so i had a big hole in my leg. the first surgery was goin in and cleanin all the bacteria and puss up, the second was to remove the absest, and the third was to go back in an make sure the infection didnt come back. we had a little mess up with the anti-biotics. they was using one kind but they werent happy with how fast it was working, so they switched to a better one, and it did worse. my white blood cell count went back up, so they put me back on the other one, and my count went back to were is should be and so they sent me home today. it is nice to be back, now the rehab it going to start in. that is going to be painful since my leg muscles are all locked up. i will ge the job done and hopefully be back to normal before to long. oh ya, the length of the incision was about twelve to fourteen inches long. the doctor took pictures for me and i will put those on here when i get them. again, thank you all for your prayers and keep sendin them my way.
love you all

Sso glad to have you back at home on base. We have all been praying up a storm that the infection would go away and "Thank you God" it has. This has brought me closer to God trying to be a strong Mom and have someone I love so much in a hospitol so far away was one of the hardest things I have had to go through. But getting to talk to you and knowing you were in Gods hands made it bearable. So thankful you back and recovering so well. We'll keep praying therapy goes well.
