Peter Update

The operation went very well on Thursday. We spent most of the day at the hospital and got home around 4. Peter was in a little pain but not too bad. The next day was worse. The area where the skin graft was taken is very sore and is weeping. Well it looks like a big roastie really. We have to go back to the Plastic Surgeon on Friday and until then we are not to touch or wet anything. So bath time is fun fun fun.

Peter had a little birthday gathering on Saturday afternoon. We then took the pals to the movies. He had a great time but really paid for it today as his leg was really sore. Well luckily for him, but not for us, it rained again today so he didn't miss out on too much.

Both the kids finally start their new school year on Thursday. New schools, new routines etc. It has been a very long summer holiday!!!

Happy Birthday Peter

Today is Peter's 13th Birthday. He spending the day at a theme park with his Dad and sister. Just hope the rain stays away!!

Love you lots

Bad news about Peter

We saw the plastic surgeon yesterday and Peter is going to need a skin graph. The surgery is scheduled for Thursday 25 Aug which is a day after his birthday. He is understandable very upset and so are we but we must look at the bright side. He does not have any permanent damage to his hands or fingers.

Finally A New Home For The Stephans!!

At Last we have found a new home and you can view it at the following link!!

Peter's arm after 5 weeks!

This is what Peter's arm looks like 5 weeks after the accident. It forming a nice scab so hopefully we are not going to need skin graphs. Non the less the surgeon has referred us to a Plastic Surgeon that we will see on 19 Aug. On the 23 Aug we see the surgeon again. Luckily for him he only starts school on 1 September so hopefully he will be out of the braces by then.

Peters arm braces

The staples are out and now he has to wear these braces for 3 to 4 weeks. We are also going to see the plastic surgeon about the scar. His wrists are not allowed to move as the tendons need to heal hence the braces. At least we have a break of a week from the hospital as the next appointment is only on the 19 Aug.

The sun is finally shining ! Peanut and the chickens enjoying the sun at last!
