The light

Postby Jenbug » 20 May 2012, 16:17

I woke up this morning to just a little sting, uncomfortable with the daring wound, but...good. I can walk, slowly, but I can walk.
Bm's (I always have to go more than once with fresh fruit) weren't painful and I've developed a dab technique till all I see is blood. Urinating still stings, but...duh.
I even SAT DOWN. what a difference a day makes.

Ive been so hoping you were going to turn a corner soon with all you were so brave to endure and how long youve been waiting for some hope.
This is just awesome. I hope the light just keeps getting brighter and brighter!

I can't live without mint water now!! It makes the tummy feel sooo good!
Even more good news! Saw my proctologist today and he said I'm healing great and doesn't need to see me for two more weeks! Advised me to take more baths and use Vaseline on the wound so it wouldn't pull on me as much and to protect it from bacteria :)
Hope everyone else is having a good Monday!
