Showering With Stitches

It's not easy and I hate the inconvenience of it but it's necessary.  I have an 8 stitch and a 4 stitch incision and was told not to get the spots wet...no-one said why and I didn't ask.  So when I shower I wrap a plastic bag around the one on my arm and tape a plastic bag to my chest.  They don't always stay in place so my showers are quick.

When I'm done, I change the bandages and feel so darned fresh that the whole process was worth it.  I'm healing well and it's only for another 9 days until the stitches are removed.  Life goes on!
