I pray the Lord will help me.
Rassie.
I am hoping for a good outcome for you too.
Those compression socks are quite important, keeps blood flowing to the leg, most hospital patients wear them.
I really do hope you recover, hang in there and be positive!

Thanks for all the good wishes and prayers as I am sure it will soon be better. Just came from Des Chem clinic and they clean the wounds and junk. They also fit new plasters and want me back on Monday. It is the pain killing me as the plaster dig all the junk out. The picture I took make me sick but I just have to take it like a man. I just have to sell all my extra parts as it cost plenty over the last year.
Rassie.

You are in serious need of Cortisone over and above the Spieracten! The infection looks a lot like a spider bite! Same symptom!!

Rassie, hou die bo kant blink! Have been following your problems and pray you'll come right soon. I've had kak with my legs for the past five or six years (circulation) - my vascular surgeon wanted to take them off, but I told him I'd grown attached to them and we must hang fire a bit. Have a lot of pain, but I cannot see ou's our age learning to walk all over again with artificial legs. Listen to your doctor, and you must concentrate on getting those sores to heal. If you have to slow down or even stop for a while, its better than losing your feet or legs.
You can always make a comeback.
Best of luck, have a great Christmas with your lovely family, and I wish you a peaceful and a Happy 2017.
Doug and all the okes at Clutch & Brake

What Doug said. The only people you owe are your family and yourself. Get those wounds disinfected. Chris UK
