We had our post-op check up today and Kevin passed with flying colors! We have been released, so now we play the waiting game for our flight home.
I am really amazed at how well the new skin on his chin matches the rest of his face. And the lower part of his neck is already flush with the rest of his skin. I expect superb results in the end and I am told it will take about 2 months for it to all be healed and any touch-ups will be done in August when we come back for the rest of his surgeries.
Anyway, here are some photos from yesterday that show how much improvement just from the other day. Amazing, huh? This first one is just him outside the Fisher House:
And this one was taken at TGI Fridays. Kevin's whalin' along to the music - something we so rarely get to see.
And now I am going to fold the laundry and then I am going to try to finish watching Slumdog Millionaire. It's been a 3 day event so far and I am still only halfway through it.
PS - Cathy M - that address is correct. I am anxious to see what you have chosen!
First 2 from the Nov kit!

I just finished reading your entire journey. Thank you for documenting it. I volunteer at Walter Reed and am about to enter a program to become a military social worker.
