So glad you are doing well. Your nurse was right, you don't need to see it just yet. Think about it.. it's swolen and brused and probably a bit of a fright to see. When I had my first round of FFS I took a bit of a look and cried for a couple days - I thought I had been mangled. Even after it healed I was still so sure I looked like a monster. It's weird the tricks the mind combined with self-image can play on folks.
Anyway... So so so so so glad for you - time to relearn how to spell your name in the snow
