Witch Arm?
I had my cast removed last Tuesday. It was a nasty ordeal that I don’t know if I should divulge here.
ok.
I will.
The doctor pulled it off and my skin had taken on the texture of the gauze fabric inside the caste. The doctor had me wash it and I stood over the sink pulling off thick 3 inch long pieces of skin. It was Makayla Leather. Not unlike fruit leather. I spent then next hour peeling it off and then it was nice and soft again.
As you can see from the picture my hand is smaller. It reminds me of an alien or witch arm. I went to physical therapy yesterday. My good hand can squeeze the squeezer to 45 pounds. The little frog like arm gets a mighty 14 pounds. I have a bit of work to do.
