To the office.

I thought it was an early appointment.  Better to get it wrong that way than the other way.  So, back home for a bit.  I just couldn't hang out in town for four or five hours.

Back, on time.  So tired though.

I still am amazed at her amazement.  My doctor has completely shaken off his amazement.  He's completely playing it down.  But I know.  That pace of healing isn't normal, not even for a very healthy even child, let alone young man.  The nurse is absolutely amazed every time she takes a look at what was and what is.  Though, I think with the doctor, he avoids looking.  It's... like... he doesn't want to know.  He wants to deal with now, today, and not even think about before.

Now, I like that honey concoction.  But the fibrous, solid, form is too much.  Was causing too much pain.  So, I looked at a small shop they have nearby.  It carries various items, for surgical and bandaging specialty kit.  Prices seemed reasonable.  I asked about the honey stuff.  The lady knew about that which I was speaking.  Didn't have the solid forms of it, but did have a semi-liquid form.

That, I thought to myself, might be exactly what the doctor ordered.  Hopefully it would just fit in, not need to be bent, warmed, formed?  And that was a good assessment.

It still burns a little.  But I like the progress with this stuff so much more, I didn't want to just give up on it.  Further, with this stuff, in this form, I can use it on the knee too.  And, if the pain relents more quickly, I'll try compression.

Let them look at all the wounds, and the side, and do some picture for measurements.  Both the nurse and myself really thought the leg wound was smaller.  By a good bit.  But the software suggested otherwise.  The doctor put our minds at ease, suggested the software... was... just software.  Which... I had been thinking anyway.  I did get a decent part of the way through electrical engineering, I know... software is... software.  It works great right until it doesn't, and for a thousand reasons, or one... or none, it seems.

The fill really is better.  And there is a purplish growth ring around.  Some other things caught his eye?  There were several very good signs.  So... right.  I do think it is more like thirty percent better.  Really.  Or closer to that, or better, but not a larger wound.  All good.

I meant to get chicken, but they just couldn't do it today.  Oh well.  I'll do it when I can.  But I need sleep so desperately right now.  On to bed.  I did turn the furnace off.  But will leave the downstairs windows closed.  Just... too cold.  I'll turn the furnace on, when I wake, if it's chilly.  Ugh.

Goodnight.
