So,... an update on my sister
(I can't believe I forgot to share this with you all!)

Last May my sis fell out of a ladder and broke just about everything below her left knee. Between a massive bone infection that went undetected and a VA that didn't want to pay for anything that would actually promote the return of the full function of her limb, it was a tough year for sis.



That's what her leg looked like back in March.

Well, Saturday, at my nephew's wedding, my sis took her first step without crutches since the accident happened.
