Hey Chuck,

I guess that happened before I got to BoB, so I wasn't aware of your injury. Several years ago I crushed my thumb on my left (non dominant) hand. Two surgeries to rebuild and 6 months of physical therapy returned me to the work-force. It was indeed a long road, and a scary one. I was doubtful of the outcome, and it still took very deliberate focus to strengthen my hand and wrist to the task. There are in my case some limitations as to what the 'restored hand' is capable of and I find that most times, IF I exceed those limitations, I'd best have a sense of humor about it. Only time will tell how fully you have been restored, and it's likely to take awhile working again for you to best know work arounds.

Be encouraged though brother, you are nearly THERE! Congratulations :cheers:

Chuck,
Glad to hear everything is mended. Hope it wasn't your tamping thumb that you tried to shorten.
