Meaningless Fluff

The surgeon told me the reason for the zigzag was something else.Something about how it heals with skin contracting. My flexor tendon blew through the pulley ligaments, so I couldn't curl that finger up. Being able to fully close my hand was important, so there it is. They did an "autograft" (ha!-auto!) and removed a tendon from my wrist to rebuild the blown out pulleys. Two turns in the middle and three in front of the knuckle. The tendon fix is a lot thicker and harder, so it doesn't compress as much. Feels weird when pressure is on it as a result. Took a lot of physical therapy and splints to get it up to usability and reasonable straightness. My whole arm felt like it had been slammed in a door for a few days. The oxy didn't help.:sad2:
I wonder how the first one of these procedures turned out!

Two nuns were on a remote beach and decided to go behind a sand
dune and sunbathe in the nude. They were lying there for a while
when a photographer came by and pointed a camera at them.
The first nun asked him, "Aren't you going to focus?"
The second nun said, "Quiet sister, let him take his picture first."
