Yuo guys definitely deserve to know what is happening with me:
As I posted previously I seriously injured my hand recently, severing tendons and nerves with a knife.
I had a fairly substantial operation (6 hours long) yesterday night in which they attempted to repair what damdge I have done. At this stage i have one hand in a cast from the elbow down with no finger movement at all (its like a boxing glove).
In the long term:
-I will have a splint fitted on tuesday next week which will hopefully give me more hand movement. -I will have a splint on 24hours a day for the next 6 weeks. -I will have a splint for 12 hours a day for the next 2 weeks after that. -I will have therapy/physio for at least 3 months, and it could take up to 6 months for me to finish that.
I also am at risk of loosing nerves in my right hand and at least one finger I might loose all function from the first joint foward. I will know more after my first clinic in a weeks time.

I'm not sure I want to know what you were doing with a knife... But if you were butchering some person, why didn't you invite me????
I hope that you haven't damaged yourself too bad this time...
