I'm tired right now but I'll 1 hand type more tomorrow. I'm obviously back from vac. and had sutures out today.

Welcome back...so if the sutures came out, then the healing is on track. Great news!

The stitches are out and it feels alot better now, no more burning and pulling sensations. I'm still supposed to wear the finger splint and not bend it until Tues, but typing is a BEAR if I have that thing on, and it is feeling better. Still hurts like the dickens if I bump it.

You never realize how many things you use a body part for until it's injured! I figured just a single finger wouldn't be a big deal, but it affects pretty much EVERYTHING! I can't wait until it heals up completely. There is still a bit of swelling right under the injury but the rest of the swelling has completely gone. I guess I'm not going to take for granted a single finger ever again. lol

BTW the dog's name that bit me......

Happy!!!

Guess he wasn't too happy that day huh??
