progression

well i've been taking photos over the weeks of my wrist, just for fun coz i have a camera. i didn't actually take a pic of it before getting it cut out, but hey. so here we go...

this is after it got cut out - it bled lots, well it felt like lots

then i took a photo of my first non-dissolvable stitches - oooooh

this was after getting the stitches out - doctor was very pleased with its progress, although the bandaids ripped my arm up good and gave me a nice rash that is still a little sensitive

ouchie c.jpg

and then it took this one yesterday as it heals up nicely into a scar. still a bit pinky but it'll get there.

there's still a little bit of irrational fear that it will burst open and all my insides will fall out. but i'm coping.

Just after my knee operation the cut did open up, and it was gross. Kinda fun though. Your scar looks cool, much better than when it was a stitch fest
