big risk of infection with a massive wound like that. He's still running his antibiotics course, not sure how long that will continue.

tonight he will be woken up properly for the first time since his first operation. he's been 'barely' conscious at times in the last 24 hours, where he could just nod a little bit, but was pretty much gone. he's on a ton of painkillers.

my father and other brother will be there, along with his gf. will be interesting to see how he reacts. he's slept basically since wednesday afternoon where he had his first surgery. in reality, other than the original first diagnosis, he will have absolutely no clue what has happened the last 48 hours. He won't remember the two surgeries, the compression chambers, nothing. He'll just wake up with a massive open wound on his leg.

but this is essentially the 'best' outcome considering the disease. 1) is cut off tissue, 2) cut off tissue and muscle, 3) amputation, 4) death.

the most dangerous part appears over. but can't say for sure because it's only when u stop the antibiotics you can tell if the bacteria stopped spreading. but seems to have stopped. risk of infection in the open wound is very present, so we'll see from here.

That all sounds so awful. I'm glad it seems he will be ok. I hope the infection is gone and he's able to get back to 100%!

Very happy to hear that. This disease generally causes death after only 48 hours, so this outcome is VERY good. Sounds like he had some good doctors and staff.

One of the scarier death scenarios imo

Crazy how everything can change so fast

Thought I was going to die a handful of times, worst was internally bleeding thinking I wouldn't wake up the next day

This is fkin scary on another level...Glad things are looking better for your bro now OP

well, prayer can help in more ways than only getting what you 'ask for'.

but i can say in all certainty that it didn't hurt

Lately i have been asking for help for the health of others, friends and family and it has worked out well.

I hope he makes a full recovery and lives a long healthy life.

Shocking when someone you know and love goes from well to that sick so quick. Scary.

Update:

Very much looks like the worst of it is over. Saw a pic of his leg (from my dad's phone) it's the entire inner side of his leg from knee to ankle. All the skin is gone, replaced with a sponge that's draining fluid until they replace the skin. They checked the wound out this evening, havent heard anything yet.

He got out of ICU couple days ago, now he's in another unit, don't remember what it's called. Soon skin grafts will start. Another 3-4 weeks in hospital, then in and out for a few months after.

well, usually this happens to people who are immuno compromised. He's as healthy as they come - no diseases or conditions, perfect health, young, doesn't smoke or drink in excess... but he is vaxxed.
