Another hurdle jumped !!!!!

The plate has been removed..... following day surgery yesterday I am one metal plate less.

It went well according to the surgeon.

Another dose of antibiotics and then I will be meeting with the surgeon in a week to have the wound checked - hopefully with a good outcome.

Have a good day - Karen
