Surgery

My surgery went well yesterday.the doctor told Tim that it was exactly as he expected. He trimmed off the frayed tendon, scraped the bone and reattached the tendon to the bone.  I have no use at all with my right hand.  It's completely dead.  I should regain feeling by tomorrow.  My arm is in a sling and heavily wrapped until July 1.  So far pain is minimal. I'm thankful for my touch pad on my iPad!  I'll be reading lots of blogs in the next week or so!

I hear you. My husband gifted me with an iPad which became my best friend during the six weeks of wearing a cast.

sorry to hear about your surgery. I guess you really didn't have many choices. I pray you heal completely.
