She is being given powerful pain meds.
Last week, she was discharged from a 'long term care facility and is now at home.
I have seen no improvement in her condition.
A wound care specialist sees her three times a week.
Her sisters did some research and found six cases of Pyoderma Gangrenosum in Tucson.
Some of her wounds are so bad she won't show me.
Your perspective gives me a realistic view of her near term future.
