Less broke.

I had my second X-ray/orthopedist follow-up today. Conveniently the last of the two suture ends came out this morning, so I am now band-aid free. The suture ends were so annoying. I had no idea what to expect, and when I pulled the first one, about a centimeter pulled out from inside! The second one was still creepy, but I didn't feel either of them at all. When they were ready to come out, they did. I'm glad they are gone.

I'm slowly regaining flexibility in my hand and forearm, but there's still a lot of weakness and stiffness to defeat. The doctor says I'll be able to start with weights in about 2 weeks and that I should be back to normal in about 4 weeks. I also start physical therapy on Monday morning, and I'm really looking forward to it. I am ready to be back to normal. I'm ready to be back on the brute squad. rawr.
