We shared a picnic and enjoyed being outdoors together.  I marveled that I was feeling well enough to even get to the beach&#8211;though I really only walked a few dozen yards from our parking spot to the tideline.<\/p>\n<p>This morning I had a surgical follow-up appointment and was told that my wound had healed enough that I could cease <a href=\"http:\/\/pilgrimgirl.blogspot.com\/2008\/08\/what-has-to-be-done.html\">debridement<\/a>.  I&#8217;m healing so much faster this time &#8217;round than with any of the previous lancings\/drainings of the wound.  Everyone is very sure that &#8220;we got it this time&#8221; and that this is all behind me now.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m scared to be too hopeful yet, but let&#8217;s just say that I&#8217;m actually making my reservation for the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.exponentii.org\/retreats.html\">Exponent Women&#8217;s Retreat<\/a> in Boston today&#8211;working on the hope that I will actually be well enough in September to go. (for those of you who are local to Boston&#8211;where&#8217;s the best teahouse\/coffeehouse?  Last time we were there we encountered a few late at night walking around Harvard, but didn&#8217;t have time to try any of them.)<\/p>\n<p>A few days ago I cut my hair&#8211;realizing that it had been months since I&#8217;d even had the energy to think about hair, face, etc.  I&#8217;d not even had the strength to stand at the sink long enough to really brush my hair, much less consider style and\/or blowdry.  It&#8217;s such a superficial thing, but it&#8217;s really a thrill to notice the difference in how I feel&#8211;that I actually have the mental and physical stamina to get back into my own self-care routines.<\/p>\n<p>Today the surgical nurse warned me that I&#8217;m going to have a pretty ugly indented scar on my leg for the rest of my life.  I told her that that didn&#8217;t matter to me as long as the infection was gone.  Scars are of such little consequence when one is finally feeling better again!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>together, originally uploaded by pilgrimgirl.
