Like I've been showering but it's hard to really clean while sitting on a stool and juggling soap washcloth shower head and also supporting myself with one foot on the bottom of the tub and the other propped up.

1. The butterfly stitches held, which is awesome. (They come off tomorrow anyway so I wasn't super concerned.)

bath!

2. I think I sloughed off 2 lbs of dead skin from that leg

3. The hot water didn't hurt my incision, but oh my god it hurt my TOES ???

4. My calf muscle has atrophied so much :C

and my neighbor didn't help earlier when he told me his never got back to the right size again

I have discovered I have a lot of horror about my body and injuries / asymmetry / helplessness

like pathological levels

anyway it was really nice to get clean

three weeks and I can put weight on it ;.;

it's weird like
it's still broken and there's still this incision from surgery, but I'm not in a cast or a brace

I wear the boot when I go out but like at home I don't??? have to ???

i guess because the pins in my ankle

idk

My surgeon has me doing range of motion exercises already, and they don't really hurt at all.

two pounds of dead skin sounds right

it's still coming off

it's so fucking gross

yeah i think mine took a few days
