Day 2

Today I changed the bandages for my sutures. I was rather shocked to learn that instead of just three, I had actually four sutures- something I wasn't really expecting.

The really good news is I finally got to take a shower, so I smell remarkably better. I also shaved, which was becoming extremely necessary.

More pictures will be posted later, but I have to warn you, that they're going to get more and more graphic, so consider yourself warned. J, although a wonderful caretaker, gets a little squeamish around blood(read: very squeamish), so she avoided looking. I managed to snap a pic or two.

I'm just happy I got to bathe, honestly. I feel so much better.
