Spike Update

So yesterday was supposed to be the glorious day. The day I was to get my stitches out. Well, there are still some there. Spike is hanging on. Because of the blood that had dried from the procedure, it was slowing down the healing process and preventing it from healing. So the nurse and my DR cleaned me up (which burned like HELL) and clipped a few out, put some high tech sterile strips on me and sent me on my way. My back has a big red square of irritated skin from the bandaids I was using and I am waiting for that to heal as well. So on Thursday the 19th, I go back in to (hopefully) say my final goodbyes to Spike.
