If it wasn't for these beauties, I'd be a dead woman. Peritonitis, perforated bowel, major emergency surgery,some large and small bowel removal (it got all stuck together). You will just see a hole on my belly, that scar is for the colostomy removal. There was a lot of healing in all this, months of dressing the large scar, which had keloid quite a lot and took to long time to heal.
But I love my scars, they are like little reminders of my life, I think of them the same way I think of my tattoos usually get one on holiday or to mark a special event. I had an unusual buttery tattoo to celebrate my life after surgery.
I can't tell you how different I am now. So much of me sort of woke up after death. Vibrancy assertiveness, drive and determination I never knew I had. I do so much more in life than I ever did before surgery.
My son calls me 'the living Angel', I seem to touch peoples lives, want to touch people, enjoy helping others. So many people remember me these days, on the 20 minute walk to school sometimes I say 'hello' to 16 people! I disappeared into the back ground before. But I think people feel my zesty appreciation for life and want to be a part of it too.
Life is very precious..xx
