New paintings and regular art updates.
After a month of big, long, thick bandages and dressings my wound is 90% healed. I now have just a small dressing as the nurse says the wound is mostly scabbed over and feels tacky. I might be discharged soon. I can’t explain how it feels to be close to being free of the problem, I’m fed up but elated. I want to get back to normal, but the word patient is correct, you have to have patience to be a patient!
It’s healing up
The weeping has stopped and my leg is actually healing. The dressing the nurse put on is smaller than this, it only reaches half way up my calf now, and there is no strike through, which means there is no fluid escaping from the wound through the bandage. You don’t know how relieved I am to know I’ll be able to get out and about again. I drove the car a short distance yesterday to drop hubby off. But the bandage on my foot was restricting getting my shoe on so I kept in one gear for most of the drive. Life is strange, I just hope I don’t do anything else to myself in the future.
My hand is OK. I just bandaged it roughly and stuck the bandage together with plasters so I could draw it. The prompt for #bandofsketchers today was ‘First Aid’. I always like the challenge of drawing hands. I drew round it’s outline to accomplish this.
I’ve hurt my wrist and I’ve had to put a bandage on it. Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt was healing. I’m hoping this heals quickly. I have already got a doctors appointment tomorrow so I will ask if they can work out what I’ve done. So frustrating. This is a digital drawing using a tablet.
