The Conclusion of the Drama of the Hurt Foot

The Conclusion of the Drama of the Hurt Foot

  At long last, the three-week injured foot challenge has ended happily! Yesterday, Nathan and I took Nemo back to his doctor for the stitches to be removed from his foot. If you’ll remember, he had a small growth on his foot. He was sedated, the growth removed, the incision sewed up, but that was […]
