My hand surgery chronicles

Postby Mike Fieldhammer on Fri May 25, 2012 2:37 pm

I flew home from Las Vegas on Monday and Tuesday was sliced open to fix my CMC Arthritis.

Typing one handed is a real PITA, but I will try to post some photos and give updates as I am able.

I won't be playing much in the next few months, but I am able to teach! Remember, Summer is a great time to tune up your game for next season.

Well, I am getting restless camping out at my parents place. I really appreciate their care and company after the surgery.

Cool and rainy in Alexandria, I am deciding whether to drive home today or stay for "Ribfest" tonight.

Back home, I'm considering asking Ryan Boyd to give me a haircut and filming it. Good idea or not?

Grrr! Typing sux. Swelling down enough to put on this lovely cast this morning. Now I've got to live with this ugly thing for 4 weeks!

I don't think my mocking came across clear enough there. What I meant to say is I've seen more typing from you since your surgery than I have in the few months prior. Then you say how hard typing is and I thought it was funny.
