Day 246 Of 365 Days To Becoming Truly Bionic!

"Because nobody goes through life without a scar"
Carol Burnett

Here it is.. my hip. My scar goes up further but this is as much as I am showing..haha :) It's 12 inches..been opened up twice. Once for my SDD surgery (surgical dislocation of my hip) this is when they tried to rebuild my hip by sawing it in half..shaving down the ball and socket and screwing it back together). 2nd time was for my total hip replacement which happened a year and a 1/2 later because the SDD surgery did not work. I also have smaller scars from my other 2 surgeries but they are tiny ;)
You can also see the swollen lump on the back of my hip..that is where the swelling will not go away and it hurts..a lot! The reason for this pic is because my 365's heart is about this.
I was ok with cutting off part of my face..I am sick of looking at it in pics and I just wanted to do a quick pic today because I really need to rest my hip..me and my hip are completely wiped out.
Much Love,
Sarah

**CONTEST**
On another note: I am taking this from my extremely brilliant friend (www.flickr.com/photos/sammysmile/) and one of my all time favorite photographers! I love this idea and I want to do it too to thank everyone for being so supportive of my project!
Getting closer to day 300! :
Taken from Sammy she worded it perfectly so I am just rolling with her words..she is the queen of words actually! Just changed a couple little things to pertain to me..haha
"There is no possible way I can thank everyone enough for their support and kindness. I don't think I say that enough. Even though this project is for me alone (this project has helped more than I can ever explain), I know myself well enough to know I would have quit a long time ago without you. Soooooo as a small thank you, for those of you interested, on day 300 I will announce the winners of my first PRINT GIVEAWAY! [flashing lights]! A keepsake so you can remember that random silly woman with her bionic hip!
