Debridement is the part no one talks about. After the surgery of Ch 4. After the exit of Ch 5. Before the build of Ch 8, you have to clean the wound.This is what it looks like when the infection comes up.

The Session

First Reiki. The reading was immediate. Heaviness in the chest. Throat. Nose. The body holds what the mouth could not say.I was not sweating. I was freezing. Air-conditioning on. Body in shock. After 15 minutes, something shifted. Calm. Subtle. Real.Scorpio rules detox. This is how poison leaves the system. Not pretty. Necessary.

The Inventory

Sleep had been broken for months. The nervous system does not rest in a war zone. Debridement means admitting what hurts. Chest. Throat. Sleep.You cannot build on an infected foundation. You clean it first. On purpose.

The Verdict is Final

They called it healing. I called it evidence. The body kept score while I was busy surviving. Revenge is a clean wound. A regulated nervous system. An appetite that comes back.This is Ch 7. The infection is out. Ch 8 is The Build. We leave the light on.This is Proof of Life. Filed under Life After.
