"Oh My"

Yesterday I made a quick trip off island to meet with the Dynasplint lady per request of my hand surgeon. I got fitted for two contraptions, only one shown here that "helps" extend my wrist. Her first words when she saw my lack of flexion were, "oh my" so I guess that means there is work to be done. The picture shows the splint that will help extend my wrist and I have another that will help flex it. For the next two weeks I will alternate days wearing them for 3-4 hours a day and then after I see her in two weeks, I will start sleeping with it on at night. The surgeon has ordered these for 3 months! The tension can be adjusted as improvement is seen. Who would have thought breaking a wrist could be so complicated!!? I'm really hoping this will help things improve as I was getting resigned to my current wrist's condition as my "new normal". Maybe I will be able to write again left handed someday.
