Something strange happened on Thursday
morning.
Still in bed, I suddenly had a
terrible pain in my right leg on the front. I jumped out of bed once I
controlled my pain reflex and turned on the front room light. I propped my foot
up on a chair to feel and inspect my leg.
I’m not quite sure how to explain what it looked like. About halfway down below the knee, there was
a spot about one and a half inches long by one inch wide where the skin was
sucked down to the bone.
It was like one of those bazaar
vampire moments in the movies. It hurt like the dickens when I rubbed the spot.
Calming myself I looked closer at the spot.
Sure as I’m sitting here writing,
the skin had a pale bluish tinge to it where it was touching the bone. The skin
around it was mostly normal looking. It
was a rather deep dent. I grabbed one
of my magnifying glasses that I use to paint in tiny details in my art and to get
a closer look. There was no bite, the skin other than being slightly blue and
slightly bloodless was stuck right down onto the bone. I could feel the bone
just under the skin. It was like the muscle tissue and sinew was completely
gone.
When my husband got home I had
him feel and look at it as well. He too thought it was strange. It hurt most of
the day. At the end of the day right before I went to bed I inspected it again.
It was still there.
I got up this morning and noticed
the pain was mostly gone. So I inspected it again. The dent is gone. The skin
and tissue is all back in place.
I don’t know what to think, maybe
I bit my husband last night and got a refill.
No not really, he was at work.
I actually have no explanation
for the dent or the lack of dent at all today.
All I can say is it was very weird.
In all seriousness it bothers me
a little. If it happens again, I might consider seeing a doctor. But if it
comes and goes that quickly, most likely once I were to get to a doctor they
would not believe me unless it was still happening. With my luck it would not
be there and no matter what I describe I will be looked at like I’m making it
up.
I will depend on God. Sometimes
that is all you can do.
Do-do...Do-do ... cue in the theme from "The Twilight Zone".
