hi all, went 2 C Doc yesterday about my hand. Bad news, i wont get full use of one of my fingers back, good news, it won't stop me sewing. Still bandaged, but trying to use machine a bit, awkward.

YIKES... You won't get the use of your fingers back!!! How aweful! There are numerious posts a day, and I can't keep up, so could you please repost what happened. Well, hopefully the doctors are wrong about your outcome... I am glad that you are being positive about the situation, because I'm not sure that I could be as positive. Teresa

yeah, i will, and i am sure he won't mind.
He is a treasure

So glad to hear the good news. Glad to see you are positive about the situation.

imandy, so sorry to hear this, I do hope that you will continue to do what you can to regain the use of your fingers. Hugs and flowers.

Hope that you can show those doctors that they don't know everything, and you can prove something to them! Hope your hand soon improves and that you can get back to your seing. Best wishes to you.

So sorry to hear about your finger mandy, I only hope it isn't painful too. Top marks for being determined to still get back into the swing of things with your embroidering. Try for *simple* designs till those bandages come off - redwork, and one-color work eliminates having to re-thread your machine too often, and teach your DH to hoop for you. Healing hugs and flowers for you sweetie.

Great advice Ruth.

great idea, it is amazing how much u can do with the left hand when u have to though.

Keep trying. We learn to compensate when something happens. You will learn different ways to do the same things

imandy, so sorry to hear - of that and as you say - that will not stop you - there are times - that things turn out different - that even the doctor's do not know why - so I am going to pray for you and I ask you to allow God's will to happen for you. *4U
