Our bodies are amazing
The healing properties of the body is astounding
The break and 1st operation happened in August 2013. The tendons snapped and 2nd operation in April 2013... only 10 days after the stitches came out and see the difference back and front of the arm
It is still difficult to get dressed, can't hold anything yet, but can almost bend my fingers so there's progress. Found there are some things I will ask help with and others I won't, even if I go blue in the face. Interesting to observe oneself and see how you handle challenges, frustrations, and difficulties. Also had a knock-on effect of creativity in other areas of my life - probably because I had to do things differently.
As u would have it patience is not my strongest suite.
My sympathies to everyone who has ever had to go through anything even vaguely similar; under the knife, a break, born without, etc.
I wanted to record progress because it is just 8 months ago and I can't remember when to expect what. I know it us different now. Apparently bone heals quite a lot quicker than tendons. triple s..t!
