Heating season is coming

All was well until it fell over and landed on her big toe! Yup!

Well, that was about 4 weeks ago now. It crushed her toe, disintegrated her bone, and then it decayed because the bone was so old and brittle. Then an infection set it, and for the last 3 weeks, we've been trying to get her to surgery to have her toe removed! (Which ain't going well, because she keeps sabotaging the surgery appointments. Had her all ready for surgery twice now, and she creatively stopped taking her normal medications, so all the chemicals in her body are all screwed up. She doesn't want the surgery. Thus, no anesthesia, no surgery!) And she's happy about that, risking a complete bone infection that could spread through her entire body....

There you go, positive proof that owning a space heater causes limb amputations! :B

Hope that isn't offensive, not trying to trivialize what she is going thru.
