I have been ask to put a picture of my scar on the blog. I can't look at it yet myself because I think I might faint. It's one thing to have the pain in the arm, it's quite another to see what is causeing the pain. I like going through life not knowing some things. For those who don't like this kind of thing, turn your head, because this is ugly.
If you can't tell, that runs from my shoulder to the underside of my elbow. What you can't see is how screwed my arm is. I'm not sure how much of the muscle they had to take, but I have a very large indentation where the muscle used to be.
I pray each day that the feeling and the ability to use the arm will return soon. Most of the surgery pain has gone, now it's just the pain that is their when I try to use it in certain ways.
I'm on my way to the gym, so the rest of my body will be in better shape than my arm.
More tomorrow.
Tom
It's just a flesh wound
ReplyDeleteI told Tom I was going to have a tatoo of a snake put around it. Then he told me that the tatoo head had 1000 needles per minute. I've had all the needles I need on me this year. Maybe in my next life I'll get a tatoo.
