I do hope it is feeling better! I am sure by now that your parience might be wearing very thin at times. Things could be better but you have been a lot worse also. Hang in there and hope for the best...real soon! Hey, you are getting a sort of vacation from all of the things that your really do not want to do. Bad thing is, they will be stacking up by the time you can do them. You do need to remember that before you get completely well, to get everyone to help you catch up so you will not have to do everything that is behind(and waiting), alone! hehe Hugs and blessings, Linda

Thank you for the hugs sofar. and i do know how it will be to do everything with one hand. in the past 6 years . i broke my left arm twice and just two years ago i broke my right arm.(by the way i have osteroporosis) but now i did not break anything. just my hb broke something : that glass ... only thing that's tricky : hope the damage will heal properly and i will be able to use the thumb again.

Another big hug from the States, from a leftie. Just sit back and relax and catch your breath. This may be the only time you'll take for yourself. Let others show you they can take care of things for you. And to misquote Scarlet O'Hara, "Tomorrow's 3 weeks away." God bless.

i just got home from the emergency .my hb broke a glass last night and had thrown it away in the kitchen bin. I had used ovenpaper I wanted to throw away, it was used. I wanted tp put new in the oven to warm a pizza. when i did throw the paper in the bin , i pushed it down. and my thumb came into this broken glass. ough !! it kept bleeding , so went to hospital and it appeared the tendom was damaged. so they made sutures inside the thumb and on the surface. it has to get absolute rest and is in plaster now. for at least 3 weeks. it's my right hand, and i am righthanded. so now you know why i need that hug ...

Of course you need a hug - lots of hugs coming your way. Please do what they say and don't test your limits. When they let you take the bandages off and the incision site is healed -get some Vit E oil or open some Vit E capsules and rub that into the incision site. It will help break down the scar tissue and give you more mobility.
