The bandage is off!

Adnin had an appointment with the doctor this morning. At last, our curiosity on how the scars look like has been answered. I didn't expect that the cuts were that long! No wonder it took around two hours for the operation. I thought it was just like 2 cm per insertion of the eight-plate. In actual, the doctor cut a whole stretch as per photos below. Anyhow, the wound healed nicely, no infection at all. Could it be because it's cold and the bacteria is not active? Or could it be that the bandage they use are very good that the bacteria could not penetrate into?


Adnin is a very brave girl. The plaster sticked really well that it needs to be soaked for a while in order to be removed. I know it was really painful to remove it but Adnin just screamed for a while. Aqilah couldn't watch it and she covered her face with her hands. I myself felt like wanting to pee!

Enough for the trauma, the doctor said Adnin is ready to resume her daily life; next week she can go to school but no PE just as yet for the next four weeks. She will be seeing the doctor again in three months time; probably will have to go for x-ray to see if there is any improvement. After all the trouble that she has gone through, I hope there will be some improvement...
