The Finger

A successful surgery. I've had half a dozen surgeries including ruptured intestines and restructured knees so this didn't even feel like surgery. It took 12 minutes :)

I had a cyst on my right index finger removed. I'm glad it wasn't my middle finger :) Look at the picture and you'll see what I mean. Here's the funny thing. With my index finger sticking up like that I feel like chanting "We're #1, We're #1." Actually, I did do a little "We're #1" chant for the nurses before leave post-op.

Here is my thought of the day. We've put a man on the moon. Why can't someone design a hospital gown that actually closes in the back?

One of life's unsolved mysteries.

Nice to see that you won't let a little thing like surgery get in the way of your blogging.

Are you blogging with one hand now?

Glad your surgery went well. I've had one too many surgeries as well, but I could do without having any more.

My surgeon literally said, "You'll have to type like Columbus for a while. Find a key and land on it."

Hmmmmm....surgeons have a sense of humor :)
