So yesterday I had my first post op appointment. The cast and bandages were removed and I got my first look at my hand. Shocking to say the least. I have about 50-60 sutures in two separate areas of the right palm, with one suture line running halfway up my middle finger. Good thing is, still no pain. Now I have a removable hard splint which makes life a little easier as simple things like flossing your teeth really require two hands. Next week I meet with the surgeon and hope to have a time line on when I can return to weight lifting and restoring kettles. For now I quench my weberitis thirst by BBQing every night. I look out my back sliding door and the kettles awaiting restorations are lined up like little puppy dogs waiting for attention. Maybe I can at least give the lime a bath today (left handed of course).
