Today I finally had my splint/cast thingy and stitches removed from my surgery 12 days ago (not that I was counting or anything). LOL! I am so very glad to have the use of my right hand back. However, I learned how to do much of what I needed done with my left. Writing, was not one of those things. It would have been fun but I needed my writing to be somewhat better than that of a kindergardener.
I won't regain full range of motion for another week to two weeks but other than that normal activities as usual, well, with some limitation.
This picture was taken after I removed the icky orange betadine from my arm. It was pretty alien looking. LOL!

There's nothing like losing some freedom of movement to make you appreciate it! Hope all continues to go well for a speedy healing process. Love the new colors of you blog by the way!
Glad to hear that you have most of the ability of your hand back! I hope the rest of your healing goes well!
Glad to hear things have gone well so far. When I was in college and at a boring lecture, I would entertain myself by writing with my left hand. You're right, it does look like a kindergartener's.
Hope things progress well and more quickly than you expect.
Hugs!
EEeewww!
Just kidding, glad your recovery is coming along nicely. I kinda miss the Japanese garden photo but like the stronger colours of your site now.
