It is with relief that I’m moving around more naturally today.
It is hard going getting dressed without lifting your arm up far.
Our gardener came yesterday. As usual, I ventured out with her,
to chat as much as anything else. As usual I felt the urge to do a little
weeding, too. I avoided any heavy pulling of weeds because of the biopsy
incision. I usually sit on Junior, my stick that converts into a stool, &
lean down to the ground. I soon discovered that just the rubbing of my arm
against the injury point ached. I can only assume it must be very bruised under
the dressing. I’ve not bothered to take the dressing off today, as at least it
gives some cushioning to the bruising – I found last night lying on that side
in bed, increased the ache.
But at least this morning I got dressed normally, lifted pans
& the kettle, without worrying. I'm feeling more myself once more.
While we were in the garden we came across an enormous green caterpillar,
a hawk moth we would guess. It soon disappeared into another home. Either that
or a bird had a very filling snack!
