Yes...please...I understand and have been there as well. My scars are very visible on my arms. Lots of them. I have not created any new ones in almost two years. I have felt the urge...but I don't want any more scars. The ulna nerve in my arm was completely severed. This nerve controls the feeling in your thumb, index, and middle fingers. Neurosurgery was performed. It brought sensitivity back, but in a very unpleasant way. I live with chronic pain, and there's nothing that I can do about it. People see my scars and take notice...I am a 42 year old woman...I do not wear them like badges of courage. They are not attractive. I can talk about it with those I trust and love. Keep your body smooth and beautiful.

I read this blog yesterday...and I cried for her. I cried for myself. I cried for others that are suffering along with me.
