My blind-gut or appendix got infected and gave lots of pain …
so it is surgically removed in hospital.
After the anesthesia, I saw only three small taped wounds on my nice shaved abdomen …
Decades ago it was necessary to stay in hospital for a week.
Now I tried to make a quiet walk on the island of Neeltje Jans a day after the operation.
With only a few pain shoots that worked out reasonably well.
During the walk I thought about what happened in my stomach …
for a photography enthusiast it is difficult not to be able to take pictures of the healing of his own intestines ….
the next video shows how a technician sees it …
the next video shows how a surgeon sees it …
