Another injury...
One of the things that I do not believe I have written about is, recently, finding myself with injuries without any knowledge of how I got them. One of the ones that has puzzled me the most is a cut I got on my right leg that is deep enough to result in a scar. I got it sometime this summer (I cannot remember when) and whenever I see the now scar, I wonder just what happened.
Well, my left foot has been hurting for a few days. I cannot thing of anything that I did that might hurt it. It is hard to describe, because it mostly hurts on the bottom of it, but more diffuse as I walk on it. Hobble, really, though I have continued to walk on the treadmill.
So, when I awoke today, and about near screamed with my first step, I thought to actually look at the bottom of my foot. It is bruised! I mean, gee! There must have been something really ... hard ... to bruise the bottom of my foot that way. I must have stepped on something really hard to bruise my foot so and to have it hurt this much for so many days. But I don't remember doing that.
Nothing.
Only blankness.
I know that there have been a few other injuries, but I do not remember them. SIGH. Today, I answered a question for the therapist from last week, only I couldn't remember the why behind the question. Why I was so deeply distraught the week before. I worked on answering her question and didn't work on trying to remember. After all, surely I would that. But no.
Nothing
Only blankness.
I really wish I knew what caused this latest injury.
When I was teaching at the alternative school, the kids would use the phrase “feeling some sort of way about that.”
ReplyDeleteI imagine you are feeling some sort of way about that. Your loss of memory is such a distressing thing for you.
