Day 53 – My theory was correct

Saturday 31st October 2009

It looked like my theory about the dressing was correct.

There was just a tiny bit of fiery red where the actually dressing had been, but the rest of my hip, which yesterday had looked like I had been severely scaled, was now a pale red.

It also hadn’t spread past the pen mark which was also good news.

Nurse Anna checked my dressing and was really pleased that the redness had gone down.
“It looks like you were allergic to the dressing”, she said.

It didn’t come as any surprise that the moisturiser that the doctor has prescribed for me yesterday hadn’t arrived, and that no one from Kermit’s team came to check up on my hip…
