this 1.5" scar will be here to stay. it will stay on with me until my skin rots away.
i read about how our amazing our body is at healing. i wish this could heal, and i long for skin to grow over it. just by looking at it every morning makes me tear. it hurt when i got it. it hurts when i had to dress my wounds. it now hurts to see how my arm no longer looks like what it used to be with something so foreign now sitting on my skin.
i now truly understand how a scar can leave such deep impressions on your body and in your life.
hard lesson learnt.
need to be more cautious in the future.
warning! graphic image coming up
a large gapping wound, if the slash was any longer i would would have felt as if my arm has disconnected from me
what's left: a pinkish 1.5" scar that will stay permanently on my arm
