Chapter 13: Liberated

Pamela rubbed her eyes. The dust was everywhere and the saw was vibrating unpleasantly. David was cutting the body cast. He started just below Pamela's left armpit and moved the saw slowly down toward her hip, then laterally, down her casted leg. After that, he moved to work on the other side. At the end, he guided the saw along the inner sides of Pamela's legs. Helped by a nurse, David pried the cast open, and using a scissors cut the stockinette and the wadding. The upper side of the body cast was removed. For a moment, Pamela felt just like a newly hatched chick. The cool air caressed her nude body. She looked down with curiosity. The sight was disgusting. Her body was covered with a lot of dead skin. There was hair on her legs. David, assisted by three nurses lifted her up. The lower part of the cast was removed too. To Pamela's surprise, even the slight flexing of her stiffened joints was very unpleasant. When she was placed cautiously on the examining table again, David started to clean her. A nurse rubbed her legs with lotion.
