Warts and All


Jordan had a little foot surgery yesterday. She has had a plantar's wart on the bottom of her foot for a couple of years and it has steadily become larger (nearly the size of a quarter) and more painful. We decided we had better do something about it before we go trekking for 25 miles in Martins' Cove at the end of the month. So we took her in and got it lasered off. Modern medicine is so fabulous. My grandpa had one removed years ago and he was laid up in the hospital for days! We were in and out in 1/2 an hour.

She did very well, but those numbing shots were nearly the death of her. Unfortunately, there's no guarantee the dang thing won't just grow right back, but maybe she'll have some relief for a while before that happens.

Just thought I'd share...
