Light at the end of the tunnel

We just changed the wound vac dressing, and even though this one has only been on for 48 hours, it's amazing what a difference there is. Yes, there's still an open wound. But it's so much smaller and the granulated tissue looks so much better. Amy said she won't feel like progress is made till the wound is closed, but her dad and I are hopeful that the end is finally in sight. For a long time it seemed like we were getting nowhere, and now there's visible progress with each dressing change. It'll happen, Amy! Her admissions packet came from Johnson & Wales today and we found out she was accepted into the honors program. Bittersweet.
