The Leg


I had minor surgery 5 weeks after Bristol was born. From genetics and from having 4 babies, I have a severe case of 'vein disease' in my left leg. This is a picture 10 days after the procedure when they stripped some veins out of my leg. It was painful and sore! It is still healing months later and as the doctor puts it, "Will never look like my other leg." Since then I have had some other vein injections and I will still have more work to do in the fall and throughout my life! Bummer!

Man, that looks bad Robyn. Glad that it still does not look quite that bad.

Genetics? From who? Jensen side? Looks bad, poor girl. I can't believe this will be a life long thing. Wow!
