The last small opening has finally closed, so it doesn't need to be packed with gauze, and it has started to form a scab. I asked Cathy to show me how I should bandage it from now on.
"Do you have a Bandaid?" she replied.
That took me by surprise. Obviously that's all I need. But looking at my belly I still see all the trouble I have come through the past six months.
This was the anticlimax and the end of being a patient.
