Hanging in there. still sore. moving thumb much hurts. i've got brusing up to the base of my fingers, and a few inches up my forearm. The stitches stay in til the 31st. swelling's not bad. it screams regularly if I try to do something it isnt ready for. bandaging isnt very bulky, for what it could've been. I wasn't given a sling ,but i've taken to using an old one as its handy for keeping icepacks in place, and reminding me to not use it.
