Life with an injury

This morning I did my usual shopping, Master felt well enough to come with me. He slept quite well last night, we were able to replicate the system they had the hospital with a lamp and the rope and keep his hand up. It is not ideal though, I had to get up several times and straighten everything.

As we are going to stay here for some weeks now, I decided to clear my room and bring everything into the office.

We came to the house to pack some stuff. Master was very particular which clothes he wanted. We will have to cut some sleeves, so his hand can fit through. So he chose some older items we can use for that. He dresses well and it is important to him how he looks.

We have already noticed how much he cannot do. All of his shoes have laces. I have to do them up, he can undo them. Brushing his teeth, combing his hair, pulling trousers up and doing them up. I have to help him get dressed and undressed, he cannot do buttons. All takes a bit longer. I have to cut up his food. He wet shaves, and he has already decided he will have to be a frequent visitor to the barber in the street. Luckily we can afford that.

I do not mind at all to have to do this, any partner would for their loved one. I knew a slave in Toronto who had to dress his mistress. She did not do a thing.

Master says he could have opted for a cast, but by having the operation and the wires put in, he will be able to use his fingers sooner, and everything will heal faster. He will have more mobility earlier.

Taking a shower this morning was quite interesting. We had to put a plastic bag over the hand and tape it securely. I soaped him and washed him, and had he not been so uncomfortable and in pain, it would have been a very long shower.

I have posted on his blog that he will take a break due to his injury and people should read mine. So I will have to post often, and of course Master will check what I write. Puuh, I am all over the place again. I have not really got over my anxiety yet. I am trying to make sense of everything. I do not want to burden Master with my little problems.
