You guys and gals
rock!! Thank you so very very much for posting submissions while
my arm was confined; I am very grateful, and hope you will continue to post images!
I cannot say I'm
all better, but typing is certainly much easier and less painful now. The day after the fall, I gained a permanent titanium plate and eight screws:
[float=left][attachment=0]forearmTopview.JPG[/attachment][/float][attachment=1]forearmSideview.JPG[/attachment]
In the weeks since, I've learned I apparently have some utility as a barometer. My (screaming hot pink) cast was removed a couple of weeks ago and replaced with a removable splint. I don't have full use of my left hand/arm yet, but can lift a coffee mug now (woo-hoo!). Physical therapy is helping.
As some have noticed, I have started posting submissions again, but will not be posting most/all of them as I have in the past. With other projects and work, and some things still taking much longer than they used to, I don't have the time to resume posting all of them, apologize for that, and as mentioned, I hope (very much!) you will all continue to post your images!
Oh! One last note: the first thing I did when I got back to work was wave my arm through the magnetometer to ensure the titanium plate didn't set it off. It didn't; yay!
