Last IV Bag Of Antibiotic

YEAH !!! I am receiving my last bag of intravenous antibiotic (left photo) for a bone infection in the big toe of my left foot. I have been receiving four bags of powerful, intravenous antibiotics every day for the past six weeks. I started receiving the infusions in the hospital and then continued here at my physical rehabilitation facility. I have endured this six-week-long regimen many times in recent years for bone infections and skin infections in both of my feet and legs. After this infusion is finished, a nurse will remove my midline (right photo).

I am going home tomorrow, where I will continue physical therapy and occupational therapy, and wound care.

My two most recent surgeries are:

November 4, 2025: artery bypass surgery (3-foot-long blockage in main artery in my left leg; removal of 3-foot-long vein in my right leg to be inserted within my left leg to bypass my blocked artery)

November 8, 2025: left foot surgery (3rd and 4th toes of left foot amputated due to artery blockage)

December 12, 2025, Cascades at Delray Beach (my physical rehabilitation facility)
