Hand Report

 

Dr. Reiley says that the bones are all healed. They are one centimeter off. Fine by me. Don't want any surgery with pins or plates of metal in my arm. Still swollen could be swollen for up to a year.

Then I got to visit Nash in the Hand Center. He's my PT. He kind of burst my bubble little bit. I thought I was gonna get rid of the splint. Oh no. I have to wear the splint around big crowds of people or when I'm afraid to get bumped because it will really hurt. And now I have this incredible Isotoner compression glove to wear for the swelling.

Mark found me a heating pad that I could wrap around my arm.

Lots of things are still challenging but I'm still coming up with creative ways to get the job done.
