Here are some photos from my doctor for those interested.
Note: These are surgical shots and look like they are from a text book vs a crime scene, but I realize these are not for everyone.
My hand - pts 1 and 2
I'm still not out of the woods for this procedure, but at least my elbow and shoulder are free.
All I can say is "Wow!" Your doctor and his staff are miracle-workers! I am continually amazed as I follow your progress. The day will come when all of this is behind you and it will be just a distant memory. Hang in there. :)
ReplyDeleteCool! That looks very clean. I did medical illustration in my past life. I love reconstructive surgery. That is fascinating! Especially thinking good thoughts for you. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWhoa.. cooool surgery photos. I grew up reading my moms surgical nursing books, they were all black and white. Color is much cooler! K
ReplyDeleteHey John!!
ReplyDeleteI can honestly and naively say that this is the first time that I have EVER been able to look at (for more then a second) anything medically graphic. It took a lot of courage and deep breathing to open the pictures. It was time to get over it! Thank you?
It's amazing what a few deep breaths with eyes closed, and positive thoughts can do for one's mind. (try it?)
love you.
