Time Heals All Wounds Quotes

•

  Rose Kennedy

  Time, Pain, Get Well

But whit if the wounds don't heal correctly, like when cuts leave behind nasty scars, or when broken bones mend together, but aren't as smooth anymore? Does it mean they're really healed? Or is it that the body did what it could to fix what broke.
