Journal entry by Linda Hill —
Saw wound care yesterday. Melvin's knee opening is worse. He has Been instructed not to wear the prosthetic for 3 weeks. You can imagine how hard that is since he has been pretty mobile since October. I compare it to a one year old who just learned how to walk and now is being asked to crawl again. Hopefully the doctor sees some healing in 3 weeks. While there yesterday the doctor also removed a few pieces of the calcium deposit on his left hip. Thanks for your concern.
