*Along with a red enamelled leg in solid silver as a milagro for an elderly lady.

One morning on the bus from Dalston to my part time job, an elderly lady fell as she was getting on the bus and cut her leg. Her skin was cut open and it wrinkled its way like a a folding fan up over her shin, the leg was pouring out blood. I sat her down and held her leg up until the ambulance arrived. The ambulance got lost on its way there, so it took a very long time for them to get to where we were held up. While I held her leg we chatted and I left my phone number for her to get in touch, just to let me know that she had been taken care of later.

But I never heard from her. With her coagulated blood still on my arms as I showed up late for my work in a high end jewellery shop. The experience of being stuck in the not knowing, left an impression on me for a long time after I had washed the blood off, and as I sought a source for my well wishing – an intrigue of the narrative of trauma vs. healing began.
