Various people asked, so, here they are...

ObDisclaimer: Behind the cut are pictures of the scars I've acquired recently, including the skin graft and the skin graft donor site. Don't click through unless you want to see that kind of picture.



The scar down the front of my leg, from the original operation to fix the bone damage. The little dots each side are from the staples that held it closed, rather than stitches. They felt odd coming out  :)


The inner calf, the result of the second operation, to fix complications from the first. They had to go in on both sides... this one they managed to sew up again a few days later (the third operation).


This is what a skin graft looks like, apparently. Outer aspect of calf, also a result of the second operation, but they couldn't sew this one back up - hence the graft (fourth operation).


This is where they took the skin from my thigh to use on my calf. This bit hurt more than all the rest put together and multiplied by 10, during the first week after it was done. Some small bits of it have healed up now, but it seems to be slow going...
