Bride of Frankenstein
Today I feel like the bride of Frankenstein. I had a follow up appointment yesterday where they checked to see how I'm healing (it's going well) and they cut off the knots on the stitches. They are dissolvable however it makes me wonder about the little bits of broken down plastic that will be traveling around in my blood stream. To remove the knots they took some of the tape off of the incision and I am now getting a slightly clearer look at the mess of scars that will be covering my torso. At this point it looks.... ugly. Dark scabby lines and bumps where skin is meeting skin it's only seen from afar. I know that thinks will settle down, the bumps will smooth out and the scabs will slough off but for the moment I feel a bit like a patchwork quilt of pieces stitched together. Maybe because I am.
