On Wednesday, the homecare nurse took off the bandage and deemed that it was okay to not put a new one on. The outpatient nurse agreed with that today and after a re-assessment on Monday, I should be discharged from homecare.
Hurray!!
The wound area (no longer technically a wound), is a mass of giant scar tissue that is going to take a long time to heal but at least it's no longer open. As soon as my PICC line hole closes, I plan on going for a long-anticipated swim. I even picked up a new bathing suit top today that covers the scar tissue so it won't burn as that would be dreadful. I'm all set for summer!
