After surgery and with LOTS of drugs

Hey everybody just wanted to show you my new trophy!!! Surgery went well. It took about an hour and twenty minutes. They completely put me under. The first thing I said when I woke up was, "I dreamed about web sites". :)

I'm in a little pain now but I have a very good care-taker at home with me. By the way, notice the very sophisticated "exercise device" they attached to the cast. It's a rubberband tied to my fingernail with sutures. Nice, huh? The doc who did the surgery is great...I was glad we had him.

Allie and Wyatt sent me a picture on my phone:



Check out my new cast... tiny huh?

More than JUST a cut

Well... I now have surgery scheduled for tomorrow. No, I'm not kidding... surgery. It seems as though I have cut BOTH flexor tendons in my pinky. The doctor's words were "I'm going to be honest with you... this is NOT a good injury to have. " Then he talked about 2-3 months of casting with a LOT of physical therapy. I hope he's not serious. Then he so graciously added "you cut an area that most doctors refer to as 'no man's land' because no man should ever have to go in there and because stiffness is such a common problem after injuries in this area. Freakin Great. well... looks like work is going to have to be put on hold for a while...
