Physio-terrorist
Something the physio said to me this morning.
"The pins will have a cheese wire effect as we move them. Don't worry about it too much"
I don't know if it's because I'm tired or I'm just particularly slow today but it took me a moment to catch on to what she meant.
She meant as the frame is adjusted the pins will cut into skin much the same as a cheese wire. Oh yes, I'm not going to worry too much as wire is slicing fresh wounds into my son's already mangled leg and foot!
WTH?! Why weren't we warned before?
Other than that, it's been a pretty good day. We still have the adjustments to do for today so I suspect that will change.
I wish I could wear it for him.

OMG!! Have these 'medical professionals' forgotten that there are real people on the other end of these treatments?!?!?!?
Of course they don't have to worry about it too much - it is a daily occurance to them and they are numb to th ereality of it all.
I often think that medico's should have to go through the procedures that they dispense so that in some small way they could maybe empathise with the anguish that is caused and then maybe they wouldn't dispense annoying and insensitive platitudes!!
I join you in your seething hun!!
