Megan is feeling a little creative before surgery tomorrow,

Megan decided that she needed a treasure map on her leg for surgery tomorrow.

X marks the spot!!!!
Reminds me of the time when her leg got burned from a hot cup of coffee. Anyway, I was working for our family doctor at the time and he lectured me about being really careful and watching it for infection. Well, we decided to put some plastic wrap around the old bandage and put some goopy "gak" play dough kind of stuff on it and then wrap it up in fresh guaze to play a practical joke on the doctor. The "gak" looked just like gross yellow-greenish puss. I wish I had a picture of the doctors face when he cut the bandage off. He couldn't believe his nurse had let it get that bad....but under the real dressing was a healing burn, that looked great. It was funny, we all got a laugh out of it. That too was Megan's idea.
We have to be at the hospital at 5:30 in the morning for a 7:00 surgery. So, goodnight all.
