I have been a caregiver to my wife, who had emergency surgery in April to clear a severe infection that could have been fatal. Part of that caregiving is wound care. I received a crash course in taking care of her significant surgical wounds before she left her rehabilitation hospital on May 9th. Since then I have practiced the art of applying gauze, pads, creams, saline, and other things to help her heal. So in a sense I have mastered that skill as much as an amateur nurse can.
