...close. His pre-op labs had been normal. I went through our old mnemonic - FRIEND - but there was no foreign body, radiation, infection, enteritis (like Crohn's disease), neoplasm (cancer) or diverticulitis producing these dry holes in my patient's knee. Maybe the miracle just wasn't going to happen this time. There didn't seem to be a reason for the cuts not to heal, but then there's no real reason for cuts to heal either. They just usually...
