Here are a few pictures of Sierra from our most recent hospital stay. She had her bandages redone on Friday, and now has much less bulk around her leg. She was pretty freaked out when she caught a glimpse of the staples, and really wanted that part covered up again. but once it was all re wrapped, she was very proud to show off her foot. She loved having her foot out of the dressing, and was walkering around the floor showing everyone how she can wiggle her toes. She still isn't allowed to do much, but she likes that she has a bit more freedom, and I like that her clothes fit a bit better, without all the extra padding. She seems to already have pretty good dexterity with her ankle so that is great, in my opinion. She will need to be able to get it to basically straight, and she is pretty close to that, if she isn't straight already. I don't know how much longer it will be until she can really start doing some physical therapy to strengthen her for a prosthesis, but I know she will be ready to work when the time comes.
