It takes time to heal,

There is no gain without pain –

Recall the first time!

Massage the swelling and scars,

Day by day they’ll fade away.

Ps: This is a bit of self-talk; after a dupytrens operation two months ago! My left hand was done four years ago. Feeling a bit sorry for myself at the mo!! 😢 🤣
