Surgery update

Surgery went well. Here's a picture of the screws and plates they took out. 4 of the screws broke off when they were being removed but the surgeon said it's no big deal to leave those in the bone.

I took the bandages off this morning and my hand is really swollen (and sore). I tried washing off the 'yes' they wrote on my hand but they used a permanent marker so it wont budge. It's kind of unnerving that they need to actually write yes on the hand that needs the procedure done to keep things straight. Anyway, I'll be popping percocet and keeping it iced up for the next few days! -Eric
