It's almost to the point where it's stopped oozing (I know, lovely conversation for my birthday greetings... ), and I have a doctor appointment sometime this week to have the podiatrist check it again. He said it should take 6 - 8 months before things will look "kind of normal". For now, I'm still wearing non stick gauze and a bandage on it. (and still wearing my open toed sandals....it's getting cold!!)<----this sounds like something I should have blogged about!! (for those of you that don't know, my big toenail was ripped off 2 weeks ago...you can read my blog for the details if you'd like...)
