so as you can tell, i am frankenstein.
not that i'm a zombie-dude made out of body parts.
or that i'm green. or i stick my arms out in front of me and go "uggghhhhhhhh".
but i'm frankenstein because i have stitches like him. that right, stitches.
but no worries! not on my head. on my ankle.
seven stinkin' stitches pulling my skin back together. it's quite fascinating really.
the only thing that really hurt during the process were the 4 numbing shots.
those were quite unbearable. but after that, i was perfectly fine.
this is the process of...happenings:
- numb me (ow)
- cut me open with a little scalpel
- take out a chunk of my ankle and put it in a little plastic jar
- lift UP the skin and sew me together BENEATH my skin. (kinda confusing sounding)
- sew up the top of my skin
- the end
isn't that COOl? and i watched them do some of that.
the only bad thing is that it's on my ankle and the skin is really tight there so it's a little difficult to walk normal and i can't run.
and when i stand for a long time, it feels like my ankle is gonna pop cause the blood is pooling down there. but i like them.
they're so cute! but i'm not allowed to look at them cause i always end up touching them and then infecting them. bad girl i am. :)
-picture coming soon- :)
oh. no. you. didn't. just blog about your stitches. I passed out at my desk and fell out of my chair and the paramedics had to come because I stopped breathing. just kidding. but still...sick.
