Still Typing One Handed

It's 11 days later and now I'm going to have surgery. I can't sleep and figure that all I'm going to want to do the rest of the day is sleep so what better thing to do than amuse myself at the computer? I don't know who wants to see these photos besides me but ... oh well... you can always go to the next blog. My good friend Diane took me to the doctor appointments today because I probably shouldn't be driving long distances with this splint and because she said I needed an advocate. I made her hold the camera at arm's length to take this photo.

This is the new cast yesterday before the doctor decided to do surgery.

This is yje new x-ray that shows the wrist bines kind of settling into where the radius is supposed to be healing--at least I think that is what it shows..

This is the surgeon's plan--where he is going to put the hardware. Pretend you are watching football and they are scribbling on the screen. It's just that the doctor doesn't have colored markers.

Just noticed something on this drawing. I assume that he doesn't plan to remove fingers to make me match his plan.
Hopefully we'll be back to sheep for the next post! Lambs in a few weeks!
