Day 2 of my experience. The bruises are beginning to show. I can see the blood clots forming all around my ankle. But at least it is not so painful as compared to yesterday and my ankles somehow do not feel so stiff.
I am diligently keeping to the instructions given by the doctor. Movements are kept to the minimum and I keep my legs raised as much as possible. And of course, no cold water.
I really hope that my ankles will heal soon. It really makes me feel guilty for not appreciating the use of my limbs. Somehow, I think about the other people who have lost the use of their limbs and the courage they managed to muster to get through life. I salute these people. When unfortunate accidents strike, we either allow ourselves to be consumed by the consequences or swim through the currents and emerge stronger.
Dear Lord,
I pray that my ankles will heal soon. I want to be able to move around and assemble experiences to share with my little ones in the future. Well, I guess this could count as an experience too. But this experience is so painful and sad, and naturally, I want to feel happy and safe.
Please shower me with your blessings, dear Lord.
In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, Amen.
