Wyatt has had quite the experience this summer. It all started in the spring March or April. He scraped his leg on a chair, which never healed up. Then Lexy scrached his leg, then just before Memorial day he scrached it again. So it was the never healing wound. Thats how it started. Well July 9th about he came home from work feeling sick with the chills and his leg was really hurting. The next day he went into work for a few hours, then came home sick. We went into the Dr's office, they put him on a oral antibiotic. The next day his leg had turned beet red, and it had swollen up 3 inches larger that it was the night before. The Dr told us to go straight to the emergency room,frear of a blood clot. We dropped the kids off at the neighbors, they were awesome to take the kids!!! At the hospital they put him on IV antibiotics. He went in the next night for another dose of the antiobiotics. After we came home his leg broke out with blisters that covered his leg. They popped and were seeping liquid. It really didn't help that the next night we went to the neighbors and Wyatt ripped the skin of by scraping it on his bike. For the next 4 days he was going into the hospital every 12 hours for his IV antibiotics. After that he went to the wound clinic at Utah Valley hospital. His Dr bound up his leg and gave him strict orders to go home and elivate his leg otherwise he would admit him into the hospital for the week. Luckily the olympics were on tv.
