Pressure Ulcer Testimonial

This testimonial was forward to us today and we wanted to share it with everyone.  If you have a wound that will not heal or have a love one with this issue DermaWound will make them much better!!
DermaWound for hard to heal wounds
I have been caring for my elderly Mother for years now.  Around May of last year, not long after her 90th birthday, she became completely bed bound, unable to even sit up in a chair.  She had to be put in the home Hospice program. 

 She was already thin, but began losing more and more weight with each passing day.  Her body had begun to not be able to process nutrients, even though she ate really well.  With this change, her skin began to break down and she started to develop bedsores at the base of her spine and both of the sides of her hipbone areas.  Of course, I turned her frequently, but it wasn’t enough.

My Mother has had sensitive skin all of her life, and just recently became allergic to any product containing zinc, which is the base to very many skin healing products.  I tried Aloe, A & D Ointment, and various concoctions trying to heal her wounds.  They would help, minimally, but would not ever completely heal the wounds.

When she developed a small hole in her tailbone area that was, on a daily basis, getting larger, I panicked and went online to see what I could do.  I am a very proactive caregiver, and would not accept the shrugged shoulders of the nurses and staff of Hospice who said, “Oh, well... this is what happens.  That’s just the way it is.”  I was NOT about to LET it happen to MY Mother!  So, in desperation, I began an intensive search to see what could be done.  That is when I found your website, and the product, DermaWound.  The testimonials were encouraging, to say the least, and I felt that we had nothing to lose, so why not give it a try? 

 Well, let me tell you... this product far exceeded my hopes or my expectations!  I followed the directions, and within a week, the hole that had begun growing on her tailbone closed completely, and you couldn’t even tell where it had previously been.  The open blisters and sores that were on her hips have long since been healed completely, leaving smooth, silver scars where once open, oozing and horribly painful sores used to be.  She is, once again, bedsore free!

 Of course, I turn my Mother even more frequently now, and we do get the occasional start of a wound.  But, I don’t panic anymore, I just grab my trusty tube of DermaWound, and know that all will be healed again soon! 

I cannot thank the makers of DermaWound enough for this product, and for the relief it has given my Mother and me.  So much for the shrugged shoulders of the nurses and doctors... my Mom and I and DermaWound showed them how tenacious and how effective NOT giving up can be.

So much for “that’s the way it is!”  My Mother will soon be celebrating her 91st birthday!

Thank you!
