From the soft cast.
To the hard cast.
The recovery is going well. Getting the old cast cut and pulled off was traumatizing, but after that, Judy got to spend a few minutes with her hand not in a cast at all. They even gave her time to sooth and wash her hand under warm water. The new cast is lighter and less painful. She is free to move her fingers, but not her thumb. Who need opposing thumbs anyway.
Four weeks in the hard cast now; still keeping from doing anything that will make her arm sweat under the cast. The calendar has turned to fall, but the weather is still hot in The Valley. That means morning coffee on the deck while it’s only eighty outside, but back inside to the air conditioning by the time it hits ninety for the rest of the day; living her life one-handed, but not to worry, she has me; her left-hand man.
