A different lifestyle

Had my first real shower in seven days since the surgery. It was a life-saving feeling. My roomie helped me tape the incision part with some plastic wrap before I could fully enjoy the pleasure of bath. I had never experienced such a long non-shower time. I could almost smell myself stink before the watery and soapy enjoyment came to salve me.

In fact, I've realized my lifestyle has changed quite a lot due to the surgery. I have to try to live in an almost totally different way, which rendered little comfort in the first place. Sometimes when I was sleeping on the bed, I kept telling myself: You are already lucky enough. Think about those who can't see, hear, speak or those get handicapped. I just had some level of post-surgery clumsiness that is natural. I should be grateful enough.

Yet anyway, now I really hope I can regain my healthy form asap, even though I have, through my own experience, learned how hard it is for people to live with varied degrees of disabilities.
