Necrotizing fasciitis (flesh eating bacteria)

Today, Wednesday, August 15, the surgeon operated to remove what the MRI showed as a 5.5" pocket of fluid. The doctor then came out and spoke with us. Scott has been diagnosed with necrotizing fasciitis(flesh eating bacteria).Follow this link to see frequently asked questions:http://www.nnff.org/nnff_factsheet.htm The doctor says that they will probably go back to surgery on Friday to debride the wound again. They are not closing it up, but allowing it to drain. He says that it will take months to heal. He may even need a wound vac for healing! And I am sure lots of IV's. Please keep Scott and all of us, of course, in your prayers!! We weren't really expecting all this!
