Crazy Medical Fun!
After the accident, my boyfriend was walking again in just under a year. He returned to work shortly after that. Now, over two years later, he is receiving a type of monthly therapy that requires several painful injections into the injury site.
Today was his third session and I'm surprised at how interesting this event was to me. I am an avid scrapbooker so of course, as part of his journey to recovery, we documented it.
Yea, that's a pain killer. They jab the needle in, snake it around until they never-so-gently press the plunger. The pain killer barely has time to do it's job as the doc unscrew the plunger, leaving the needle still fully inserted, and screws on the medication plunger and forces that liquid into his leg. There were several sets of these. Matter of fact, here's another image to further demonstrate.
Every one of these is an injection. The clear are the pain suppressors and the brownish/red are the medication, no needle, just a fluid forced through the already inserted needle.
Crazy cool.
