Hi rws965! Welcome to NT!
How terrible that the hospital staff let this bed sore go on like this! My goodness, this shouldn't have happened!
It's so sad that one single moment in time can set us back like this. In my case I was kicked in the hand by a horse and shattered the bones. This, in turn led to RSD in my lower extremeties! I know it sounds insane.
Perhaps it wasn't as a direct result from the broken hand, but the hand fracture is what set off a series of problems and now I'm sitting here with a spinal cord stimulator to manage the pain! One instant in time.

Anyway, I just wanted to welcome you and to say that this is a fantastic place to be for support, understanding, and alot of good information.
There will be others along who can help point you in a direction.

It's great to have you!

Caring,
Rae
