Typing With Two Hands...YEA!

Well, another milestone today. Today after therapy I discovered I can now type with two hands and use all the right keys! It was an amazing discovery for me!!! My left hand is not completely in the right position and it's a somewhat uncomfortable stretch to type but, hey, it's progress and at this point I'll celebrate anything. My biggest obstacle continues to be the swelling that makes mobility difficult. No wonder "they" say it can take a year or two to recover from this kind of fracture. I'm just 6 weeks tomorrow since surgery and I am discovering I'm not the most patient patient. I miss my old hand, how it looked, how it felt but as the therapist said today, I have this year to focus and make my hand the priority if I want to have many years of good function ahead. He's always so darn practical.
