Mark - Mentally Tough

Before I tell you what happened today you have to understand the following: Mark has to take two steps forward, then one step back to go to the next two steps forward. Today in Mark's mind it was the one step backward because he won't be able to get up from bed for about 5 days. But with this step Mark now has skin cover the top of his thigh, this is great for his road to recovery.

Mark had the operation and everything went fine!!!!! The Doctors took a thin layer from his left leg (good leg) and put it over the open wound. They also cleaned up the top lower leg and bottom lower leg of any infection. Mark was in good spirits after the operation - he wanted water since he did not eat or drink anything for 17 hours. It was a long but good day!!
