The Occupational Therapy folks have been using a massage technique for lymphedema to help reduce the swelling in Dad's arm. They are also addressing the edema in other parts of his body, but the arm is getting the most interesting treatment. This KTape lifts the skin and give the lymph (fluid) a pathway to move out of the limb. This week they went after the swelling in his fingers too.
Looks like Dad is going as spider-man this Halloween.
It all seems like voodoo, but then it works, amazing.
