[“… an accrual of phantom limbs” – Kathleen Stewart]
Yes, losing a leg in that car crash last summer was bad, although I’m doing a lot better know, learning how to get around without too much trouble. When I woke up in the hospital, back then, I did have the “phantom limb” sensation – that my leg was still there. The docs said don’t worry, that’s a common experience, harmless.
But the last few days now, I’ve been feeling that I have more than one phantom limb. Five more, in fact. I stare at the walls and see things crawling.
