The following is Max doing a foot soak to try and remove some of the dead (necrotic) tissue from his gangrene. This is after 18 HBOT treatments.. Today is 5 days after his 18th treatment and we are not just left with dead skin on his toes... there is new tissue under the dead black skin.. so we're soaking it in salt water to try and soften it up so that it comes off... I am beginning to thing we need to get Max a bath with those little fish that eat dead skin.... (not sure how sanitary that is... but they'd have a field day on his foot)

HBOT = hyberbaric oxygen therapy. Hopefully this blog will help others! Please help spread the word!
